Beyond the Bike Lesson Resource - dictators and their economic legacy
26th February 2016
Following on from Stuart's earlier blog post about benign dictatorships, I've put together a simple lesson resource using the "speed dating" approach that is a firm favourite here at tutor2u. This resource encourages students to evaluate the impact of 20th and 21st century dictators - a great route in to looking at factors that affect economic development.
