6 Unit Enduring Understandings
Geography themes of location, place, movement, human-environment interaction and region are useful tools for understanding history and current events. A society’s values can be seen through their cultural and scientific achievements Challenges to the social and political order frequently come from radical new ideas. Technology, commerce, and religion cause cultures to interact, exchange and conflict with one another. Every society has developed some political system by which either the one, the few, or the many rule over others.

7 Unit Essential Questions
How does geography affect people and societies? How can ideas change the world? What is globalization and when did it begin? What happens when different cultures interact? Why do technology, commerce and religion have an impact on inter-cultural interactions? What is the proper relationship between citizens and their government?

8 Why study world history project - The world and the US today are facing many significant “Revolutions” and wars that have their root causes in the past. Lessons from the past can also help us understand the “Revolutions” and wars, prepare solutions, avoid pitfalls observed from similar “Revolutions” and wars addressed in the past and better prepare ourselves to be citizens of the world. Project: As a group, prepare a brief Powerpoint presentation for ONE assigned current “Revolution” or war. Using your textbook and internet research (find useful links on mrksmodernworld.pbworks.com, as well as other sources, complete a Revolution/War Snapshot chart. As you research, record proper bibliographic entries (noodle tools). Share your research with the other members of your group so that each has a complete Revolution/War Snapshot. Analyze the list of the Course Enduring Understandings (see list above) and determine which relate to this “Revolution” or war. Find images, charts, graphs, etc that will help illustrate your what you have learned and will inform your audience. Prepare your Powerpoint presentation. Include all of the above information.
