La edad de oro del Islam (Asynch)

This is an asynchronous class.  Videos will be sent out TWICE a week.
 
Sift through related links to realize the discoveries made during the rise of the Arab/Islamic rule across Europe, Africa, and Asia (circa 600CE - 1500CE). We will learn about the knowledge that was stored, gained, improved upon, and passed on to the world, leading to the Renaissance and still having effects in the Modern Age.  

We will look at discoveries and inventions based on School, Universe, World, Town, Hospital, Market, and Home as outlined in the text 1001 Inventions.  

Class interaction: Ultimately, this course will be as beneficial as you make it based on student involvement, enthusiasm, and completion of additional activities. 
1. Class discussion question for every topic
2. You will have an ongoing timeline or set of playing cards to develop and share
3. Additional activity to try out what these discoveries were all about
