** New to Outschool? Use code MelanieWia2020 to save $20! ** Welcome to your World History Course on the Great War (World War I)! In this eight-week course, students will learn about the important events and people that shaped the Great War. We will explore the world events that led to the Great War and how it became an international crisis. This period represented a time of uncertainty and tensions but also a time of progress and advancements in the ways of war. We will examine how people around the world responded to these changes and how the need for power led to violent conflicts between countries from around the world. For a detailed list of topics that will be covered in this course, please view a week-by-week breakdown in the Syllabus tab. In these classes, students will view a slideshow presentation with pictures, key information, videos, and discussion questions to help guide our time together. My goal as a history teacher is to have your child remember the experiences and stories of those who lived during those times and to gain an empathetic understanding of the challenges of those living during this event. Using the historical thinking concepts (continuity and change, historical significance, cause and consequence, historical perspective, and ethical dimensions) students will critically examine the Great War. It is important for students to understand the lasting impacts that history has on our present world. In addition to our weekly classes together, students will also be given a weekly task to complete to help solidify their understanding of particular historical topics. Please see the 'Homework' tab below for more information. Below is a breakdown of some of the major topics that this course will cover but not an extensive list of the individual topics that will be discussed. If you have any questions regarding the course, please reach out. Please contact me if you have any questions regarding the course, I am happy to help. Accommodations can be made to help your learner be successful in the course.
