May 14


You wrote an in-class writing assignment today in which you wrote an analysis of a propaganda poster or advertisement. This took most of the class period. I also took in your Chapter 9 Key Terms and Questions today. Your Civil Rights Movement Assignment is due on Monday (including the essay outline sheet). You have your Chapter 10 Test on Thursday, May 20th, please see the study guide below.

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:

  • Characteristics of Democracy (handout notes)
  • Characteristics of Dictatorships (handout notes)
  • 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
  • proportional representation concept
  • first past the post system
  • review political and economic spectrum (again!)

We continued doing presentations for the Unit 2 Collaborative Inquiry Project today. You should not be editing your wiki still unless it is to add a link to a Prezi. We will finish up the presentations on Monday (this is the last day to present).
