Review of unit 5
You need about an hour.
What have we done?
Before you leave this unit, look back over what you have done using activity sheet 42. First, on your
own, score from 1–5 how much you feel you have learnt about each of the unit’s three aims (1 is a
little and 5 is a lot). Mark in the box on the right anything more you want to do to take forward
your learning. Now come together as a group to consider what you have learnt as a group. How
are you doing together? Write in the box at the bottom what additional actions you may want to take as a
group to strengthen your understanding of any particular part of the unit.
You will have now reflected on your own personal learning and how the group is doing as a whole and what you agree needs to happen next.

A right review
Rights and adult responsibilities – Articles 3, 4, 42
Act by Right is rooted in the Convention on the Rights of the Child. By developing your own Act
by Right Charter, the group should increase your understanding of your rights to participate in
the issues affecting you and strengthen your arguments to be taken seriously and get things
changed. Reflect on your learning in this unit and look at the particular Articles indicated
above, which are in your copy of the Convention in the Resources section. Discuss the questions below and
agree at least two Articles to add to your Act by Right Charter (blank copy downloadable from here) and complete the three columns: the number
of the Article, ‘The Article says’ and three action points in the ‘What we are going to do’ column.
- What do you feel about these rights you have?
- Do organisations and government take their responsibilities towards you seriously? If not, why do you think this is?
- How can you use these Articles in your work as a group?
Before you move on
Reflecting on what you’ve learnt and the skills you’ve gained give yourself a personal challenege to complete during the week.
- Make sure you get some of the results of your evaluation on your social networking site.
- Go back to some of the people who have supported you along the way and let them know what’s changed.
- Think about how you’ve changed since starting this project. Re-look at some of the activities in Unit 1 and see what personal journey you’ve been on.
