Crash Course World History videos: 30 and 31
During this unit, we'll be studying the transition of various Latin American countries from being imperial colonies to independent nations. The post-World War II era will be addressed in a sort-of group project, not a paper and pencil test. Also, there is a different textbook (the red cover) that we will use, however. Physical copies are in the classroom, and the relevant sections have been copied and are in .pdf form in the Google Drive above.
Project skills: group project with independent scores, on-line and cooperative maps, using text as a resource, proper short answer format, identify valid media resources for current events, summarize and evaluate the significance for current events in broader historical analysis.
