Hist 20: Dec 15
- Several students were missing but we did a homework check on Section 2 of the handout. (Section 2 was to be done for Wednesday, though some were still not finished.)
- Students were given a Concep Map assignment. They need to list 25 concepts (names, dates, countries, agreements, etc) and connect them together using Transitional Phrases. The students have done a few concept maps in my classes in the past. While it may take a while to begin a map, and it may be frustrating, its learning value is immense. You need to really understand your topic to correctly make a concept map. Their focus is to map out the ‘political scene’ (or mood) prior to the initial outbreak of World War Two in Europe. (They’ve just reviewed this information yesterday in their review of Section one of their handout.)
