Week 7

WEEK 7

This week we stared with answering questions in teams where we split by a blue line where the boys

were on the left and the girls on the right. There were rules that limited the girls to speak out loud and

able to only use one book with no paper or pencil. The questions were about what we have learned so

far in the course but with the restriction the boys were winning. The girls then found a way to answer

with Siri, but the boys were already too ahead. It was obvious this was not fare and the winner was

not going to get the actual prize because that wouldn't be academically fare. In the end, we talked

about how we felt about this and both sides agreed that if they had the upper hand, they would

definitely take it and benefit with it. I then thought about the theory where humans are just naturally

evil. Ideally we would think humans will help the other knowing something is not fare, but i this

example, whoever had the advantage would use if for themselves. Then I also thought about how you

can't give if you don't have. This is where we also came to agree after having the advantage, the team

would then help the other team to also succeed. Back then, woman had many regulations that

restricted women to grow and do things men were able to do. In this class session, the women still

had less restriction than the women back then. With that restriction in the past, it did also lead to the

change in that and giving power to more women now. even though there is still more work to be

done, defiantly progressing.

Week 12

Chapter 21  In chapter 21, the book talks about the two main communistic countries that rose. These countries  were Russia and China. In the definition of Communism from Marx, there were only two ways to  make change to capitalism in where the people come together to reform or to violently act for the  change. however, for a Country to rebel and come communist, the country has to industrialize. This is  where Russia and China become interesting because they were not industrialized but rather more  traditional but were able to skip the step and become communist. The main goal for communism was  to have equality to everyone. This included women where they were given more rights then the other  countries that weren't communist. the chapter then goes into the Cold War where the two power  houses of the world were the Soviet Union and the U.S. the war was wars against other countries that  the two power ...

Week 13

Chapter 23  Strayer starting with the picture of a space view of the Earth has many meanings behind it. I believe  the photo represents how if we look from an outside perspective we are one, but getting closer we are  divided and have different views.  Strayer talks about Anthropocene which broken up means Human  Era. this Era is where Human history is also affecting Earths history. As humans are progressing, we  are creating products that are either destroying or replacing the Earth's material. We as a society is  playing the role of God and controlling what is made or destroyed. The prime example is our cars  where we are releasing pollution into the atmosphere. However, we are changing that by making  hybrids or fully electric cars. Humans are also recreating land masses like island, rivers, hills, and  many more. We have even built cities on top of landfills that hit its maximum capacity. The chapte...

Week 2

Chapter 13  In class, we talk with Europeans were starting to to explore and why they had an advantage. At first, I thought they were exploring to see what else is out in the world. In reality, they wanted to find a  better way to get into the Indian ocean trade. I then remembered back to learning about Columbus  and how Spain wanted to find a way to India for spices. I didi not know that the Indian Ocean trade  was also called the Sea Road even though it is self explanatory.  We then went on about how China  was unmotivated by going to The Americas because they were good where they were. Then it got to  the information that we learned in earlier years of schooling about the Native Americans. We then  went to discussion about Europe and if acted upon genocide to the Native americans. During the  discussion our groups I accidentally said Indians rather than Native Americans. I then corrected  my...
