Task: We'll begin class with a review of your digital literacy terms. Then, we'll finish the video on apartheid and discuss contemporary South Africa. We'll spend the remainder of class considering the status of the DRC, Zimbabwe, and Somalia in groups. Each group will be assigned one state to review. In your group, you'll discuss the answers to the regional study. Then, you'll get out the computers and research the history and contemporary status of your state. Finally, your group will create a poster that includes a timeline of significant events, a list of key individuals and vocabulary, and an explanation of the significance of this state/issue.
