Helpful Resources for Today's Class:
Let's take a look at a modern-day revolution to see how it began and what underlying factors may have been present that contributed to the start:

Case-study: a modern-day revolution:

• Mohamed Bouazizi: The Spark that Ignited the Arab Spring (the globalist)
• ​The Arab Spring: A Year of Revolution (NPR)
• The Guardian view on Egyptian democracy: it would be a good idea (Guardian, 2018)
• Into the Hands of the Soldiers review: how democracy failed in Egypt (Guardian, 2018)

​
Compare/Contrast Revolutions:
Additional options for 2nd choice of revolution:

• England’s Revolution (a.k.a. "Glorious Revolution")
• Haitian Revolution​ (a.k.a. "slave revolt")
• Russian Revolution (focus on the 1st revolution)
• ​Cuba’s Revolution (Fidel & Raul Castro + "Che" Guevara)
• Mexican War of Independence (part of the Latin American Revolutions)

Once you have decided on which revolution you want to research, please complete the following short Google Form.

Be sure to include details across all columns of your research table, including OPVL and QCI. 
Consider with QCI which of the supporting questions this source helps you to answer--these are your insights.

Today, we will continue working with the concept map you developed. We will turn the conceptual relationships you identified into statements.  You will list these statements and decide on 1 statement you want to focus on.  You will use this statement as a topic. You will then write 1-2 paragraphs on this topic and post it to SeeSaw.  This is a journaling/free-writing exercise to demonstrate your understanding of the concepts. Please do not use your notes for this. 

Use the following Conceptual Understanding Rubric to guide the depth and details you include in your writing.  
​

Read The Human Story, Chapter 13. Take notes on some of the revolutionary changes it addresses (hint: there are several revolutions mentioned in this chapter).  Use the guiding questions to decide what is worth taking notes on.
​Remember, only take notes on information that helps you answer the questions.

You will work on mind-mapping out the ideas and insights you now have about the relationship between the concepts of power, values (or ideology), change and conflict.

You will use this concept map to brainstorm a list of statements of understanding you now have about these concepts within the context of how ideas can lead to revolutionary change within society.  

You will be assigned to participate in a Socratic Discussion focusing on one of the following sets of questions.  Your preparation and participation will be formatively assessed using the Shared Inquiry Rubric  ​
