December 10


I went through a PowerPoint presentation called "Quality of Life, Human Rights and Democratization" that I will be sending to you this afternoon. We also started to do a comparison between the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We'll be continuing the Charter activity of Tuesday. Here's a short video on John Peters Humphrey from the History Minutes series. You have your Unit 3 Written Response Assignment I (3 source analysis) tomorrow. Please remember that you have your Unit 3 Final Exam on Monday, here's the study guide (scroll down to find it).


You wrote your Unit 3 Written Response Assignment I (3 source analysis) today. After you finished this, we looked at the Patriot Act again, and looked at aspects of the American Bill of Rights that it may infringe upon. You also read a short debate between former U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft and Senator Russell Feingold over the USA PATRIOT Act. You also had some questions to answer on this topic as well. Please remember that you have your Chapter 10 Test tomorrow, here's the study guide.
