Week of January 11th to 15th

This week we will continue to explore industrialization and economic modernization in the United States at the turn of the 20th century. This includes:

• Assessing the social implications of industrialization and economic modernization through analyzing primary sources, and;
• Debating the role and responsibility of those who benefited most from industrialization and economic modernization then and today, and;
• Illustrating Zinn's "Pyramid of Wealth" to reveal the social consequences of industrialization and economic modernization.

 This is also a great time to begin reviewing your notes from the unit in preparation for next week's unit exam. I am confident you all will do well.

Here are the slides for January 12th:
