Lesson Plan

Calibrating The Trust Meter

Students will define trustworthiness, explore the choice-action link, and assess how their daily actions raise or lower trust, culminating in a personal trust audit and a concrete integrity goal.

Trust underpins all relationships. By examining how choices affect reputation, students gain self-awareness, accountability, and tools to build trust in real life.
