CPWC Day 47 - History of China

EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITY:  You can earn extra credit for attending and participating the "Great Decisions" discussion series.  Please see the email I sent last week for details.  If you would like to come to any of the discussions, please let me know so that I can add you to the Schoology group.

Objective:  Examine the ideas and influence of indigenous and diffused religious and philosophical traditions in East Asia.  Investigate the historical and cultural significance of the Silk Road.

Task:  Ni hao!  When you arrive to class, please submit you homework to the appropriate Schoology dropbox.   We'll spend the first few minutes of class reviewing Confucius and then you're going to spend the remainder of class investigating the history of China with "Condensed History of China." Be sure to submit your reflection AFTER completing your notes.
