World History 9: Daily Agenda

April 6/7: Consider Historical Perspective on European Colonization in Africa

4/5/2020

 
Today's Driving Question:
​
How does the perspective influence
our understanding of history?

Task #1: Formative Assessment:
Close Reading and Primary Source Document Analysis

Task #1: Complete the Closing Reading & Document Analysis Formative Assessment.

There is a Google Doc (dropped into your World History Drop Folder) for this.  Follow the instructions within the document.

Refer to the rubric provided within the document (this is the same rubric you used at the start of the year for the India Partition assignment-- you will notice, the course is coming full circle back to the skills practiced and gained at the start of the year, only you will do this independently).

Do not remove this document from your World History Folder.

Task #2: Watch the video on Belgian Colonial Museum and 'Human Zoo'

Embedded within this 10-minute video are 3 open-ended short answer questions and 1 multiple choice question.  Be sure you watch this video within EdPuzzle so that you get the completion credit for this (recorded in PowerSchool). This task will be marked in PowerSchool as to for completion. Be sure you complete this to avoid a "missing/incomplete" designation. 

If the embedded video isn't working from this site, try using this link. 

Task #3: Post a 1-2 minute (or 1-2 paragraph) informal reflective journal entry in SeeSaw

 Post a 1-2 minute reflective video journal (or, alternatively, write a 1-2 paragraph reflective journal entry) in SeeSaw about your take-aways on the dangers of a 'single story' within the context of the history of European colonization of Africa.  This reflection is informal. You are free to share your own thoughts and opinions and use personal pronouns. This task will also be marked in PowerSchool as to for completion. Be sure you complete this to avoid a "missing/incomplete" designation. 
​
Use the following quote from Ms. Adichie to guide your reflective response in SeeSaw:

You may also want to consider any one of the following questions (some of the questions are similar but just phrased differently): 
  • How does the perspective influence our understanding of history?
  • Who should get to tell the story of colonization of Africa? Should some voices on the impact of European colonization on Africa matter more, matter less, or should we consider all voices/perspectives when studying this?
  • How does/would an incomplete story or missing voice/perspective on European colonization of Africa affect how people view this ?
  • ​If the story of European colonization of Africa remains incomplete --or-- perspectives not recorded or acknowledged on this issue, how might this change historical records?
