CKRWilliams‐ENG IV Radiolab – Morality Assignment Essential Question: Where does our sense of right and wrong come from? From the Radiolab description: Where does our sense of right and wrong come from? This hour of Radiolab, we peer inside the brains of people contemplating moral dilemmas. Plus, we watch chimps at a primate research center sharing blackberries; observe 3‐year‐olds fighting over toys; tour Eastern State Prison‐‐the country's first penitentiary; and we hear a story of land grabbing, indentured servitude, and slum‐lording in the fourth grade. I highly recommend that you focus upon the segments on the chimps, the fourth graders, and the 3 year olds. Activity: 1.
