October 2

We looked at how the Canadian government uses monetary and fiscal policy to stabilize the business cycle today. We also looked at how the Obama administration used Keynesian ideas to battle the 2008 global recession. We'll start looking at Sweden and the mixed economy tomorrow. Remember, we're moving to the next quadrant on the economic-political grid: democratic socialism.



We watched a video from the BBC documentary series "Days that Shook the World" on the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand.  You also should have completed the reading on "The Causes of World War I" from your Social 20-1 coursebooks.  I did a homework check on the Chapter 4 Key Terms and Questions today. I also collected your Unit 1 WRA I Chart Assignment today as well. Your Chapter 3-4 Test is this Friday (October 4th). Please see the study guide below.  

This test will be on Friday, October 4th. It will consist of a matching section (10 key concepts) and a short answer section.
  • make sure that you study the PowerPoint presentation "Contending Loyalties"
  • make sure that you have read Chapters 3 and 4 (it is all testable material)
  • know the key concepts/key terms from Chapters 3 and 4 (please see the Unit 1 Worksheet for these)
  • study your answers to the Chapter 3 and 4 questions from the Unit 1 Worksheet (all could potentially be on the test)

You will be writing the Unit 1 Final Exam on Monday, October 7th. It is a multiple choice  format exam. Make sure that you have read Chapters 1-4 in Exploring Nationalism. Please make sure that you know the key concepts from Unit 1 (see below). Also review the PowerPoint presentations that you should have in your notes. They are also on the Social 20-1 wiki under Unit 1 Presentations.

I gave back some of your assignments and tests today. I gave you a heads up of how the IB might phrase Paper 3 questions for the Great Depression and the Americas topic, especially material that we're moving into now. We started the "FDR and the New Deal" Google Slides lecture today, so it's probably a good idea to print off a hard copy and bring it to class tomorrow. I've posted these slides on the IB 30/35 wiki. Please go to the D2L shell called "Social Studies 30-1_cohort IB HL", find the IA Submissions folder in the Assignments folder and upload your IA today. Thanks!
