World History

We began screening "Guns, Germs, & Steel" while working on a thesis flow-chart handout, adding to our E.Q. page, adding a few CQs, and completing an end-of class "exit slip" (on a 1/2-sheet of your own paper) -- answer the following questions 1. What did Europeans of the Colonial era often say was the reason why they had more wealth than darker skinned people in other places?  2. Why does Jared Diamond find that Colonial reason to be incorrect? 3. & 4. Tell me two new things you learned today.  (The video is available on You Tube; we viewed through 30:00 today.)
