Weapons were the leading technology that allowed one nation to overpower another and its' people. I will not show graphic images during the classes or on any handouts. The historical fact that many people in Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas were killed during conflicts during this time in history will be discussed. No religious group is portrayed as good or bad, but it is impossible to discuss history without mention of the effect that different religious groups had on different people and nations. Discussion is focused on the impacts based on historical documents. One cannot discuss this time period without talking about the negative impacts on the people of Africa and India. No judgment is being made on the people of today, but we can look back and discuss past government policies and how they impacted different groups of people, both negatively and positively. I teach classes directly using Canva and YouTube clips. Occasionally I will assign documents or images for analysis using Google Docs or Google Slides. Learners may want to submit responses in the classroom using Google Docs, but this is not required, as they may use the classroom page. I supply direct links for learners to use the Kahoot! and Blooket review games as a way to review between lessons. These games do not require learners to enter any personal information. The links are provided via the classroom page each week. They are only sent to the enrolled learners in the current section and expire after the unit ends.
