I split you into two large groups to set up tomorrow's debate on the statement: BIRT globalization benefits the world's cultures. We'll have the debate tomorrow. Don't forget that your infographic assignment is due tomorrow. I want you to e-mail me the link to your infographic assignment and print off a hard copy to hand in tomorrow. Your Unit 1 Final Exam is on Monday, October 5th, please see the study guide below.

SOCIAL 10-1 UNIT 1 FINAL EXAM STUDY GUIDE:

Unit 1 Final Exam will be Monday, October 5th. The format for the exam is entirely multiple choice. It will consist of 55 multiple choice questions, 60-65% of the questions will be "source-based" questions, while the remainder will be simply knowledge and comprehension style questions. In other words, the source-based questions will use political cartoons, timelines, a chart or diagram, a graph, a reading, a photo or a map, and you will have answer questions related to that source. The source-based questions will be difficult to prepare for. You must have a firm grasp of the concepts and key terms that were introduced in Unit 1, because that will allow you to apply the knowledge that you have to answer the multiple choice questions.

Please study your key terms from Chapters 1-5, and the topics covered in that unit.
