  1. Chapter 1 info not mentioned in the TCI presentation

  2. Bell Ringer • What is Bias? • How would describing Florida be different if: you were describing just Florida, or Florida as part of the USA? • What is a spatial frame?

  3. The Process of History Writing • How did the ancient Silk Road trade route help spread religious ideas across Asia? • Gathering evidence that helps in making statements or drawing conclusions. • Document, book, journal • Artifact (something made by humans that reveals something about their lives) • Drawing • Music • Interviews with people

  4. Primary vs Secondary Sources • Primary Source: A document or record of past events produced by people who experienced those events or lived during the time. • Secondary Source: Documents created later, typically by scholars or experts.

  5. Primary or Secondary? 1. An original Indian Tepee 2. A picture of you and your friends at Disneyland 3. A historian article about Pearl Harbor from interviews of those actually there. 4. The Arc de Triomphe 5. Your Text Book

  6. Point of View & Bias • “History is written by the Victors.” • All history is subject to point of view, which means it is seen through the perspective or opinion of the creator. • Because all history is seen from a point of view it is subject to bias, or personal preference/prejudice about a specific topic. • American Revolution

  7. American Revolution • A fight for independence from the British over issues of taxation and lack of rights. The Colonists won, and were liberated from the British King! TAUGHT TO EVERY AMERICAN STUDENT. • The American Colonies rebelled against the Crown. An effort was made to reunify the Colony, but was abandoned do to its unpopularity. Britain gained a great trading partner. NOT EVEN MENTIONED IN ENGLAND.

  8. Time • Historians normally attempt to put things in the order that they happen making a Chronology. • Once events are in order they divide them into periods of time (periodization) • Three long periods in World History are: • Ancient • Medieval • Modern

  9. Geography • Where something happens can be just as important as When something happens in history. • Spatial Frame: Concerns geographic perspectives that historians apply to world events. • Interregional: an event in two or more regions at once.

  10. Political Unrest in Egypt

  11. Habits of Mind • There are three “habits of mind” that can be used for history. • Look for patterns over time and space. • Why did many of the first civilizations arise in river valleys? • Make comparisons within and among societies. • Compare and Contrast the river valley civilizations of Egypt and China. • Assess Universal Standards in light of cultural difference. • How do the governments of modern day Egypt and China compare when considering the rights provided to their people?
