While I have found Stanley Milgram’s studies on obedience to authority fascinating (and the “lost letter experiment” is also interesting), I do understand that it isn’t exactly high school material. That said, I did, in 17 years of teaching now, have one kid ask about Milgram. Furthermore, I am aware that many of Milgram’s contemporaries and colleagues expressed serious ethical qualms about the methods Milgram used.
Nonetheless, here is a short reading on Dr. Milgram’s study along with its vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet.
If you find typos in these documents, I would appreciate a notification. And, as always, if you find this material useful in your practice, I would be grateful to hear what you think of it. I seek your peer review.
