Presenation Day 9/18/13


Today in Human Geo class, each group presented their power points on globalization and its pros and cons. Once everyone had finished presenting, we started to discuss the upcoming test. We don't meet tomorrow, so they test will be on Friday. It will include ten or so multiple choice questions, and three brief response questions. Examples of topics that will be covered on the test are, a message to Garcia, Did You Know/ Shift Happens, infrastructure, developed and developing countries, globalization, and Greek terms like agora, arĂȘte, and Socrates. We were reminded that we will need a pencil to fill in the multiple choice questions.

A tool we can use to study is the first document we did in Google Drive. It was a paper on questions we expect to be on the test, and its answers. Some Q&A’s on my groups document are:

How did Socrates die?

  • He was sentenced to die by drinking poison hemlock.

What is the Socratic Method?

  • The Socratic Method was Socrates’ way of teaching. He would question people over and over and expect answers from them. He would get them to try to think of the overall picture and rethink their beliefs.

   

What does arete mean?

  • Excellence
