Afghanistan: 12 Years of Violence
In this lesson, students can examine how events in Afghanistan in the 1980s and 1990s led to the rise of the Taliban and the role that the United States played in this development.

Taming Terrorism
In this lesson plan, students identify international agencies working to eliminate terrorism, study their recommendations, and debate the effectiveness of the proposed measures.

The Roots of Terrorism
This teacher's guide uses a series of four documentaries produced by FRONTLINE in the wake of Sept. 11 to explore the roots of terrorism and the complex evolution of U.S. policy and Islamic fundamentalism. The guide includes maps, background information and nine classroom activities.
