We finished Gandhi - no time for a discussion, so I asked you to come back on Tuesday prepared to discuss what was handed out yesterday.
I gave you a handout with a list of activities and assignments from Q4. Please organize (title & sort in order) your notebooks so you can turn it all in together on Tuesday! I made a folder and dumped some of our more recent Q4 handouts into it. If you are missing something, you can find it here. I am also going to allow you to submit late WILs...this is a FIRST EVER opportunity, so I hope you take advantage of it. Many of you goofed and skipped your way through Q4...now you will have to get it all done over this 3-day weekend!
WIL make-up opportunity...
1 PAGE EACH
Super Late = PARTIAL Credit ONLY
WIL 4.1 Cooperation vs Competition
Consider the difference between Capitalism (Smith) & Socialism (Marx). Which leads to more advances or improvement upon human civilization? Which do you value more?
WIL 4.2 Why Study History?
What is the purpose of History? Why is it important to remember the Holocaust?
WIL 4.3 War
Is war actually worth it? Consider how much is spent in terms of resources like time, money, and - most of all - people. Consider injuries (both physical and mental trauma), death, lost relationships, supports, etc. Also consider what technological gains have been made in the pursuit of winning war.
WIL 4.4 Appearance vs Personality
You are at a party and meet an absolutely terrific-looking person. He or she has movie star looks but is a little dumb and a lot boring. Do you still go out with him or her?
WIL 4.5 National Interest & War
Consider the National Interest of nations and basic psychology. Is war ever justifiable? When/Why, or why not? Also consider nationalist movements, the concept of equality, and other ethical issues.
