HWC Day 4 - Critical Thinking & Library Resources

Objectives:  Identify the characteristics of a critical thinker.  Identify and utilize library resources necessary to complete activities in HWC.

Task:  Good morning!  As you come into class, please get out your reading notes, make sure your name is on the first page, and put them in a pile on the front computer cart.  We'll spend the first few minutes of class finishing our discussion on collaboration and critical thinking.  Then, I'll distribute your "Foundations Investigation."  For the remainder of class, we'll be in the library reviewing and utilizing library sources.

As you complete the  "Foundations Investigation" please consider:
  • All work should be your OWN - this is NOT a collaborative activity and answers should be provided in your own words!
  • Use your Globalization & Diversity textbooks to identify the cultural regions for part II.
  • You must use PRINT copies of History Today and Current History to complete questions 52 & 53.  These responses will be posted as comments on the class blog (http://svhs-hwc-fall2014.blogspot.com/)
  • Use NoodleTools to submit your citation and summary for question 54.
Also, please remember that you will have the majority of class on Tuesday to work on your presentations.  Anything not finished in class will need to be completed on your own time.

Homework:
  • TODAY - Individual Primer notes
  • Tuesday, September 2 - Binder & 10 dividers in class for organization
  • Wednesday, September 3 - Primer presentations due at beginning of class
  • Thursday, September 4 - Foundations Investigation due by 3:00
  • Friday, September 5 - Globalization & Diversity chapter 1 reading quiz
  • Monday, September 8 - Primer vocabulary quiz
