December 16


We finished off the "Shouting Fire" documentary today. I also had you read a short article from BBC News on the amount of CCTV cameras in the UK, and then I showed you a short 15 minute video from the HBO series "Vice" that focused on Camden, New Jersey.
Please remember that you have your Chapter 10 Test on Thursday, December 17th. In your yellow multiple choice booklets, please refer to Test III (questions 1 to 69, 84)



This test is multiple choice format, with 55 questions. Please review the PowerPoint "Political Challenges to Liberalism". You're responsible for all key terms and questions from the Chapter 10 Worksheet. Please review the following as well: 
  • Democratic Systems (handout notes)
  • Non-Democratic Systems (handout notes)
  • Structure of Canadian Government
  • Structure of American Government
  • similarities/differences between the parliamentary system and presidential system
  • types of dictatorships
  • techniques of dictatorships
  • authoritarian systems

You wrote your Market and Mixed Economy Test today, please remind me to give you the results back tomorrow.



We finished off the "Quality of Life, Human Rights and Democratization" PowerPoint lecture today. I gave you the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights (Plain Language version), and gave you an activity to do on the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
