The Medal of Honor Character Development Program allows students to use critical thinking skills as they explore primary sources. In the edWeb.net Lesson of Personal Bravery and Self-Sacrifice community’s most recent webinar, specific and reproducible examples were given on how students can analyze complex academic language, identify tone and purpose of primary sources, and increase their ability to use primary sources in evidence based writing.  This webinar was part of a series of webinars on the free Character Development program developed by the Medal of Honor Foundation with 50 lessons aligned to Common Core standards. Webinar attendees received details on how to access the full free Character Development Program, available online and on DVD, that includes over 50 lesson plans and 100 video vignettes on the character traits of courage, integrity, sacrifice, commitment, citizenship, and patriotism, based on the Medal of Honor Recipients’ stories.
