SAMPLE READING QUESTION AND CRASH COURSE VIDEO RESPONSE

READING QUESTION AND CRASH COURSE VIDEO RESPONSE SAMPLE:

Your own typed out reading questions and crash course response might look like this...or they might look different.



Name: Flann O'Brien                                                                 Schmoll's History 210

Chapter 1 Reading Questions:

1.      The Igbo had “title” societies. Is that similar to titles or distinctions given today?

2.      On page 38, the author says that “agriculture imposed contraints on human communities.” Do we still have caloric constraints?


Crash Course Video #1:

John Green said that we will be using archaeology and other sciences in the study of early human history. Why then, I wonder, is this era taught in a history course? Don’t historians deal mostly with written sources? I think it is amazing that the “forager peoples” that he describes spent much more time on art and culture than we do. Maybe we should go back to being early humans.
