Lesson Topic
Colonial Encounters in Asia, Africa and Oceania 1750-1950
Lesson Outline
Industrialization between 1750-1900 gave rise to new economic needs and many of the solutions were found abroad. Also, industrialized nations produced more than their own populations could consume, so they needed a larger base to sell their goods. In the last quarter of the 19th century, nationalism encouraged imperialism. Nations began to compete for overseas colonies on Asia, Africa, and Pacific Oceania. Imperialism seemed an international game of power politics. The Suez Canal was complete in 1869. We looked at a new kind of racism called "scientific racism.

Lesson Comments
Because Joshua had trouble concentrating on the written portion during the 2nd day of his Chap. 9 test, he was permitted to complete the four short answer writing questions and the one essay at home over the weekend. I did grade Joshua's Chap. 9 test. He scored 81%. He lost 6 points on M/C questions and a total of 13 points on four short answer and one longer essay question. Many of his responses left out important information, were poorly organized or lacked a clear thesis statement. I did include commentary throughout Joshua's writing. He does included some good points throughout, but the overall tone of his written responses are disorganized, frenetic and hard to follow.
