For Tuesday Oct 25th

Sorry I am not in class today, I am at  a training at the District Office. 
Your French Revolution Timeline will be due (for submission into Google Classroom) by Tuesday (the 25th) by  11:59 P.M. 
The History Channel Documentary about the French Revolution ( and the questions) should be uploaded by Tuesday Night as well.


 Chapter 3 Test on Thursday. 


For today (Tuesday) please answer the journal question below and spend the reaminder of the time workin gon your timeline, OR using the quizlet link I supplied to practice for the test, OR watch some of the review video's I have posted. 

We will have some type of review in class before your test  

Please read directions just above the Journal question regarding your cheat sheet for Thursday


CA.10.2. Content Standard: World History, Culture, and Geography

Students compare and contrast the Glorious Revolution of England, the American Revolution, and the French Revolution and their enduring effects worldwide on the political expectations for self-government and individual liberty.

10.2.4. Performance Standard:

Explain how the ideology of the French Revolution led France to develop from constitutional monarchy to democratic despotism to the Napoleonic empire.

10.2.5. Performance Standard:

Discuss how nationalism spread across Europe with Napoleon but was repressed for a generation under the Congress of Vienna and Concert of Europe until the Revolutions of 1848.

________________________________________________________________________

Objective:
Given a historical background on the social and political atmosphere in France in the 1700's, students will be able to recognize the causes and influences of the French Revolution,  develop an awareness of the pivotal characters involved in the conflict, and list the results of the conflict and its impact on world history

Rationale:
The French Revolution is well known as being one of if not the most influential Revolutions to have ever happen. People rising up over a social system as well as a religious and military system that was in place to support it, remains the standard for revolutions that changed the way the world viewed government, rights and freedoms of citizens.

Evidence:
Being able to identify and connect various events, the value system that spawned them, and the effect they had on not just France but the rest of the world will allow students to see modern day revolutions from a perspective of knowledge when  comparisons arise.

Today's Essential Question: 

Mob rule does it ever produce a reasonable outcome?______________________________________________________

Your time in class Tuesday should be spent answering the Journal question, then finishing your timeline and making sure your video questions get submitted as well (see the top of the Blog if your not sure what I mean).

For Thursday - the best way to get the timeline information onto a print-out is to take screen shots and place them onto a google slide. That way you can print them out in a shorter number of pages than the current pdf format the Hstry.co website provides.
The easiest way is to take screen grabs of your timeline and place them on a google slide. Once on the slide you can crop them to make them easier to move and place closer together so they print-out on less pages. You can use the same technique if you used the more sophisticated timeline maker. I would suggest you place your timeline back to back on paper so there are less pages to fumble with during the test.


Journal Topic"Societies exist under three forms sufficiently distinguishable. 1. Without government, as among our Indians. 2. Under governments wherein the will of everyone has a just influence, as is the case in England in a slight degree, and in our states in a great one. 3. Under governments of force: as is the case in all other monarchies and in most of the other republics. To have an idea of the curse of existence under these last, they must be seen. It is a government of wolves over sheep. It is a problem, not clear in my mind, that the 1st. condition is not the best. But I believe it to be inconsistent with any great degree of population. The second state has a great deal of good in it. The mass of mankind under that enjoys a precious degree of liberty and happiness. It has it’s evils too: the principal of which is the turbulence to which it is subject. But weigh this against the oppressions of monarchy, and it becomes nothing.  Even this evil is productive of good. It prevents the degeneracy of government, and nourishes a general attention to the public affairs. I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.1 Unsuccessful rebellions indeed generally establish the encroachments on the rights of the people which have produced them. An observation of this truth should render honest republican governors so mild in their punishment of rebellions, as not to discourage them too much. It is a medicine necessary for the sound health of government." Thomas Jefferson to James MadisonParis, January 30, 1787

This is the passage (especially the bolded text) that everyone uses to quote Thomas Jefferson and his opinion about revolutions...
your task is to explain...
1. what he means (put his words into more simple words that, i.e. what are the 3 societies, which one is best)
2. explain how this passage relates to the French Revolution...justify the French reaction based on Jefferson's definition

Journal Topic: Equal work for equal pay...is it a thing? Is it a good thing? Is it a bad thing?

Here are two sides to the argument - (THESE LINKS ARE FOR ME TO USE IN CLASS, DO NOT CLICK ON THEM)
Let's hear what children think...
Women are discriminated against
Not true it a load of crap
a 3rd different approach is presented by Milton Friedman - Nobel Peace Prize winning economist

Equal Pay Act

The Equal Pay Act requires that men and women be given equal pay for equal work in the same establishment. The jobs need not be identical, but they must be substantially equal. It is job content, not job titles, that determines whether jobs are substantially equal. Specifically, the EPA provides that employers may not pay unequal wages to men and women who perform jobs that require substantially equal skill, effort and responsibility, and that are performed under similar working conditions within the same establishment. Each of these factors is summarized below:
  • Skill
    Measured by factors such as the experience, ability, education, and training required to perform the job. The issue is what skills are required for the job, not what skills the individual employees may have. For example, two bookkeeping jobs could be considered equal under the EPA even if one of the job holders has a master's degree in physics, since that degree would not be required for the job.
  • Effort
    The amount of physical or mental exertion needed to perform the job. For example, suppose that men and women work side by side on a line assembling machine parts. The person at the end of the line must also lift the assembled product as he or she completes the work and place it on a board. That job requires more effort than the other assembly line jobs if the extra effort of lifting the assembled product off the line is substantial and is a regular part of the job. As a result, it would not be a violation to pay that person more, regardless of whether the job is held by a man or a woman.
  • Responsibility
    The degree of accountability required in performing the job. For example, a salesperson who is delegated the duty of determining whether to accept customers' personal checks has more responsibility than other salespeople. On the other hand, a minor difference in responsibility, such as turning out the lights at the end of the day, would not justify a pay differential.
  • Working Conditions
    This encompasses two factors: (1) physical surroundings like temperature, fumes, and ventilation; and (2) hazards.
  • Establishment
    The prohibition against compensation discrimination under the EPA applies only to jobs within an establishment. An establishment is a distinct physical place of business rather than an entire business or enterprise consisting of several places of business. In some circumstances, physically separate places of business may be treated as one establishment. For example, if a central administrative unit hires employees, sets their compensation, and assigns them to separate work locations, the separate work sites can be considered part of one establishment.
Pay differentials are permitted when they are based on seniority, merit, quantity or quality of production, or a factor other than sex. These are known as "affirmative defenses" and it is the employer's burden to prove that they apply.
In correcting a pay differential, no employee's pay may be reduced. Instead, the pay of the lower paid employee(s) must be increased.
