February 22

You wrote your Paper 2 on the origins of the Cold War today. Please print off the Vietnam War Notes from the wiki this weekend. Make sure that you read, highlight and take notes on them. We're starting the Vietnam War on Monday. Of course, we also have TOK Group Presentations next week. Please have a look at the new documents that were posted on the wiki under the TOK, they should help out a lot on structuring your TOK essay.
We did some review today on 19th and 20th century political spectrums, the economic-political grid, before we delved into new territory. We looked at some basic economics, looking at scarcity, basic economic values, and basic economic questions. Next week, we'll look at the business cycle. I did a homework check on the Chapter 3 Questions as well. Here's the video that we started watching in class on the Industrial Revolution:


We had some group and class discussion time today. We covered the concepts of expressions of nationalism, and then we ranked the causes of the French Revolution. Next week, we'll be reviewing how to write a WRA I (3 source analysis writing assignment).
