Social 20-1

Most of today's class was spent playing a simulation of a fictitious WWI peace conference to try and prevent the outbreak of the great War. In this simulation, the "cards are stacked against you" since you have to adopt the foreign policy decisions that the major powers were locked into. We'll look at responsibility for the war tomorrow, as well as start looking at the results of WWI. You'll get the results of your Unit 1 WRA I back tomorrow. You won't get your results for your Chapter 3-4 Test until after the long weekend (on Tuesday, October 12th). Here are some maps to help you with your World War I Map Assignment that is due on Tuesday, October 12th.

I started a PowerPoint presentation lecture on "The Evolution of Modern Liberalism". I will finish this presentation tomorrow. I also gave you a handout of case studies of mixed economies from the Ideologies textbook. Please remember that your Ideological Reaction to Industrialization Test is on Tuesday, please see the study guide here.
