We looked at a case study of national self-determination, specifically Kosovo. I gave you a package of readings related to the declaration of Kosovo independence in February 17, 2008. Some countries in the world have recognized the independence of Kosovo, whereas others did not recognize Kosovo as an independent country. I collected your Chapter 8 Key Terms and Questions at the end of the class. You will have a Unit 2 Part A In-Class Writing Assignment on Monday, November 24th.

We watched a video called "Impacts of Globalization" today in class, and completed a film study sheet that went with it. This film introduced the concept of the Human Development Index (HDI) which we will look at again in Unit 4. We started watching "The Other Side of Outsourcing" today and worked on a film study that went along with it. We'll finish this documentary tomorrow.
