Presentation Transcript

  1. New Classroom Arrangement • We are going to break into groups to decide how the classroom should be rearranged. • Each group will provide input on ideas for the new classroom configuration. • Each group will submit a proposal for the new class configuration. • Each group will receive a direction sheet that lists specific steps that must be followed. • You must follow your group’s directions precisely. • Each group will be provided with a blank classroom map, slips of paper, and tape.

  2. Activity Response • How did you feel during this activity? • Why did you compete with the other groups to claim furniture? • Do you think this was a fair way to claim the furniture? • What might have been a better way? • If unclaimed furniture remains, who should get it?

  3. Connecting the Experience With History • The students (European powers) become caught up in a competitive race to claim pieces of furniture (non-western territory) in the other side of the room (Africa, Asia, Middle East). • The students (European powers) used index cards (national flags) to stake their claim. • The students (European powers) used furniture (colonies) without knowing exactly how it would benefit them (territories were unknown and few colonies provided benefits.

  4. Connecting the Experience With History • Three groups of students (Britain, Belgium, and France)had directions that told them to start sooner (They had a head start in acquiring colonies) . • The other students (other powers – Germany, Spain, Portugal, and Italy)resented this privilege and scrambled to try and catch up. • The students (European powers)discussed the fairness of the scramble and who should keep what furniture. (Berlin Conference on Africa)

  5. Analogy of Imperialism • The competition for non-western territory among European powers was like... • Prospectors racing to stake a claim in the gold country • Concert goers clamoring for the best seats • Sharks in a feeding frenzy • You can choose one of the above analogies or you can create your own. • Below your response, make a simple drawing of the analogy and label the historical comparisons.
