IB 20

We finished watching "The Fatal Attraction of Adolf Hitler" today in class. We'll be putting a historiography of Hitler article up on the wiki tonight. I'm still working on some other case study articles for you on Peron and Castro as well. If you are a Diploma student, don't forget that you have a Extended Essay meeting tomorrow after school in Room 121.

IB 30/35

If you haven't complete the computer tutorial in the D2L shell already, please make sure that you do so tonight!

You wrote a quiz for the first part of today's class. You'll get the results back tomorrow. Please remember that you have your Unit 1 Final Exam tomorrow. The study guide can be found here. With this exam it will force you to know only understand the key concepts and ideas of Unit 1, but also use your application and analysis skills too. I also gave you a package on how to write the WRA I and WRA II assignments that you need to be able to do for Part A of your Diploma Exam. I didn't get through the WRA II "Recipe for Success" handout. If you missed class today, get these handouts from me tomorrow. Read  over the "Recipe for Success" tonight, and ask me any questions that you might have tomorrow. You might also want to check out Student Writing Samples from past Diploma Exams to see how the assignments are marked, that can be found here (it's the January 2010 Part A of the Diploma). Here's January 2011 and here's the January 2012 version of Part A of the Diploma Exam.
