May 6

We watched "Globalization is Good" today in class, and while you watched the video you were to complete the film study guide that went along with the film. We did have time to go over the answers at the end of the video as well. Please remember that your Chapter 13 Key Terms and Questions are due on Monday. This would be a great weekend to get some initial research completed on your TNC Dossier Assignment as well.

I started off today by drawing your attention to the May 5th post where I put up a bunch of hyperlinks that will help you on the USA-Canada Government Comparison Assignment. You also have to post your answer to the questions posed on the May 5th post as well prior to next Friday. This assignment is worth double homework check marks. I went through a PowerPoint lecture called "Political Challenges to Liberalism" by focusing on the later part of the presentation and examples of non-democratic systems. I have sent this PowerPoint to you already. I then passed out a reading called "The End of Democracy?" from Maclean's magazine. I also gave you the Civil Rights Movement Assignment. I have sent you the essay outline sheets that you need to complete as part of the Civil Rights Movement Assignment already, so check your e-mail.
