Due by start of class on Thursday (but you can turn them in early):
- Poster:
- Thesis statement (including reasoning point)
- Three pieces of evidence supporting your reasoning point
- Each piece of evidence should have two bullet pointed statements (1. Definition and 2. Connection to Reasoning Point)
- Kahoot
- Set up an account on Kahoot and create a 10-12 question quiz based on the Key Concepts (pick a section from the same unit as your prompt).
- No more than three joke questions.
- Answers should be educational, not simple or trivial.
- Share with me (my user name is: JoeKerwin)
Key concept 1.2: Improvements in maritime technology and more organized methods for conducting international trade, such as joint-stock companies, helped drive changes to economies in Europe and the Americas.
- Simplistic question: What did the Europeans use to conduct trade during the Columbian Exchange time?
- Steam ships
- Airplanes
- Joint-stock companies
- Wagon Trains
- Better question: How did joint-stock companies help the Europeans improve their international trade during the time of the Columbian Exchange?
- They allowed for mutual cooperation between the imperial nations.
- The system allowed for the natives to work jointly with the Europeans, sharing in the wealth of the colonies.
- They allowed for investors to pool their capital and share the risks.
- The system used drugs as a way to pacify and control the native populations.
