Goal: Colorado academic standards: Social studies, High school

## 1. Preschool · Understand one's relationship to the family and community and respect differences in others.

- [Sympathy Versus Empathy](https://ai.page/c/sympathy-versus-empathy/index.md): Distinguish sympathy ('I feel sorry for you') from empathy ('I understand what you're experiencing'); develop active listening skills: reflecting, paraphrasing, asking open questions, resisting the urge to problem-solve too quickly; understand empathic curiosity as genuine interest in another person's inner world; practise being present for someone in distress without trying to fix or minimise their experience; understand vicarious trauma and compassion fatigue, and how empathetic people can protect their own wellbeing while staying present for others

## 2. High School · Analyze the impact of civic participation on political institutions and public policy.

- [Global Citizenship](https://ai.page/c/global-citizenship/index.md): Understand what it means to be a citizen in an interconnected world where decisions in one place affect people elsewhere; explore global issues (climate justice, forced migration, global health, poverty) through an empathy lens, distinguishing facts from value judgements; engage with the ethical tension between obligations to those close to us and obligations to distant strangers; introduce evidence-based giving and effective altruism as one framework for thinking about global responsibility; develop a personal, reasoned stance on global citizenship that acknowledges complexity
- [Leadership Styles and Influence](https://ai.page/c/leadership-styles-and-influence/index.md): Distinguish different leadership styles (directive, democratic, servant, transformational) and understand when each is appropriate; understand that influence in a group comes with responsibility, and explore the difference between leading through inspiration versus coercion; practise inclusive leadership: actively creating space for quieter voices and diverse perspectives; understand the ethics of influence and the boundary between persuasion and manipulation; explore concepts of consent and coercion in peer relationships; reflect on what kind of influence they want to have in their communities
