HWC Day 5 - Origins & Collaboration

Objectives:  Discuss the origins of man.  Define history and the social sciences as they will be utilized in HWC.

Task:  Good morning!  I hope you all had a relaxing weekend!  We'll begin class with a brief discussion of the "Becoming Human" documentary you viewed over the weekend.  Specifically, we'll examine the argument presented and consider the complexities of the social sciences.  Then, you'll have the remainder of class to work with your group and create a video presentation on your section of the Primer text.

Special Notes:
  1. If you haven't done so already, stop by the library to pick up issues of History Today and Current History for questions 42 & 43 on the Foundations Investigation.
  2. I have filled in student names for the PDPs, PDCs, and SJSs.  Please check the spreadsheet to make sure that you have been assigned for all three tasks.
