Additional Notes About This Unit
This is Unit 1 in the Modern Global History Curriculum. It covers 1750-present.
This unit is not meant to be a comprehensive overview of the world in 1750 – That would take many more lessons (and possibly its own course) to cover adequately. Instead, this unit is designed to present students with a basic overview of a few major civilizations in the year 1750.
More importantly, this unit is designed to introduce students to major skills and concepts they will encounter during a modern history course:
- Historical concept of power – What does it mean, who has it, and how do historians learn about the power structures of societies
- Source annotation skills – Specifically, how to annotate a source for a research question
- Source analysis skills – Text and image analysis
- Basic geography concepts – geographic features and they impact people/places/society
- Classroom routines
- Basic historical writing skills - Thesis statements with supporting evidence
File Format
The lesson plan, classwork, and exit ticket come in editable Microsoft Word documents. You can also upload these into Google Docs with minimal formatting required.
The slides presentation is an editable Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation. You can upload this into Google Slides with minimal formatting required.
