Essential Question -Total Control.....It can be a good way to get things done...


Totalitarian = “Common to all definitions is the attempt to mobilize entire populations in support of the official state ideology, and the intolerance of activities which are not directed towards the goals of the state, entailing repression or state control of business, labor unions, churches or political parties. 

 Totalitarian regimes or movements maintain themselves in political power by means of secret police, propaganda disseminated through the state-controlled mass media, personality cult, regulation and restriction of free discussion and criticism, single-party state, the use of mass surveillance, and widespread use of terror tactics.

Thursday March 14th Day 25

World War 1

Objective:
Students will be able to analyze the arguments leaders from all sides of the Great War and the role of political and economic rivalries, ethnic and ideological conflicts, domestic discontent and disorder, and propaganda and nationalism in mobilizing the civilian population in support of "total war"
Examine the principal theaters of battle, major turning points, and the importance of geographic factors in military decisions and outcomes (eg., topography, waterways, distance, climate)

Rationale:
The "War to End all Wars" has many different interpretations as to its cause, its various changes and turns during, and its outcome. The effects of the war impacted many changes that occurred after its end (depression, WWI, etc). Students should understand the environment that led to the first war that was not relegated to one specific area but impacted an entire continent as well as other surrounding continents.

Evidence:
Being able to list the factors which led to the conflict, evaluate those factors for their merit or lack there of, and propose possible solutions that may have prevented the war, or changed the terms of the surrender which may have prevented or altered the World War that followed will allow students to gain insights as to how historical events were addressed.
