Viewpoints - Faults of Qin.docx PowerPoint - Imperial China.pptx

= HW: Read the Viewpoints handout on "The Faults of the Qin Dynasty." The Han historians present a Confucian argument that the Qin fell because they were not virtuous. The Qin, on the other hand, would argue that Legalism is a much better, much more realistic philosophy and they would point out that THEY were the ones who unified China. I want you to post on this dispute. Using the evidence in the handout and from your textbook you must make two posts on the Discussion Board. First, write a post on whether you think that Qin Legalism or Han Confucianism was better for China. Make specific reference to your sources. The first post is due by 9:00 pm Tuesday night. Second, post again in reaction to someone else's post. You can agree, disagree or modify your initial views but you must explain your position beyond just saying "I agree." The second post is due before class on Wednesday. =

== We have been talking in class about the awful and unrealistic obligations that foot-binding placed on Chinese women. We can all agree that it is crazy to expect women to have 6" feet and to define their attractiveness in such terms. However, are our modern standards of female beauty that much better? Here is a photograph of a professional model, showing the kind of plastic surgery she would need in order to have a body like Barbie. What does this image suggest about what girls think they should look like? ==

Test - 2012 French Revolution Essay.docx

= HW: Write take-home essay test using the organizer. =

= __EXTRA CREDIT__ =

= =

= Many of you have seen or heard about the Kony 2012 campaign on YouTube, sponsored by a group called Invisible Children. =

= =

= [] =

= =

= It's a well-made film that is trying to persuade you to do something to make the world better. That's cool. But how is the video manipulating you? And is it correct in its claims? I want you to answer those questions and I will reward you with extra credit. Here's what you have to do: =

= =

= 1. Post specific examples from the Kony 2012 video, with the time-mark, of how the film-maker is trying to appeal to you. For example, at 2:20 the video shows the birth of a baby and his parents being very emotional and happy, which makes the viewer emotional and happy also. State what the video is showing or saying and how that is an attempt to persuade/manipulate the viewer. For every specific example you post, you'll earn 1 point of extra credit (capped at 5/person). You don't get credit for posting examples that someone else has already posted, so read each other's examples before you post your own. =

= =

= 2. Go out and research the issue for yourself. Central Africa is a complicated place (like almost everywhere else in the world). Is the video giving you all the information you need to decide what to do? Locate other sources that relate to Joseph Kony, Invisible Children or the situation in Central Africa. For each source you must provide: a) the link; b) a summary of what the source says; c) how the source confirms or contradicts the Kony 2012 video; and d) MOST IMPORTANTLY, state who the author of the source is, what their bias is and whether you consider the source reliable. =

= =

= For example: =

= =

= a) [] =

= =

= =

= b) This is a blog post describing the viral rise of the Kony 2012 campaign and the writer's ambivalence over whether she should get involved. =

= =

= c) The post says that Kony is a bad guy but also says that there are some doubts about the Invisible Children group. Basically, the author doesn't feel like she knows what she's talking about and doesn't feel like she has any power to change things. She doesn't really confirm or contradict the video. =

= =

= d) The author is a student at the University of Michigan and the post is from the University of Michigan student newspaper. She isn't an expert on the subject. She does a good job of describing what its like to be an American who suddenly hears about the Kony 2012 campaign but she doesn't really tell us anything that will help us make up our minds. She is not reliable about what is going on in Africa. =

= =

= For each source you post, you'll earn 4 points of extra credit, capped at 20/person. Again, you can't post sources that have already been used, so read each other's stuff. =

= =

= If you want to do a larger project or devote a class to this subject, let me know but start with this. I look forward to seeing what you come up with. =
