The document provides a review of Key Concept 5.3 from the AP US History exam, which discusses the Union victory in the Civil War, Reconstruction, and the contested implementation of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments. It outlines the North's greater resources and leadership that led to victory over the Confederacy. Reconstruction established citizenship and voting rights, but Southern resistance through violence and new laws undermined these advances. Questions remain about federal power and minority citizenship even after the Civil War and Reconstruction.

This is my new LEQ Rubric for the new AP US History exam. I have created a different rubric for each of the four historical thinking skills that a Long Essay Question (LEQ) can assess.
American foreign policy from the Alaska Purchase to the election of Woodrow Wilson, with special emphasis on the Spanish-American War and TR's Big Stick Diplomacy
Nativism in Antebellum America (AP US History)Tom Richey
http://www.tomrichey.net
This PowerPoint was designed to accompany a lecture on antebellum "Nativism" (resistance to Irish and German immigration) in my AP US History course. In response to the wave of Irish immigration in the 1840s, Native-born Americans mobilized first as mobs (Philadelphia Nativist Riots), and then politically in the form of the "Know Nothing" Party in the 1850s.
The Articles of Confederation: America's First ConstitutionTom Richey

This PowerPoint presentation was created to introduce US History students to the Articles of Confederation, the first plan of government adopted by the United States. The successes (winning the war, Northwest Ordinance) and failures (bad economy, Shays' Rebellion, etc.) are explained. A graphic organizer is included to help students compare and contrast the Articles with the Constitution.

While historians often refer to the Industrial Revolution that took place between 1760 and 1914, there were TWO distinct phases of industrial development that took place during this time. The latter period of development, from 1850-1914, is often referred to as the "Second Industrial Revolution." World Expositions, such as the Crystal Palace (1851) and the Columbian Exposition (1893), showcased the technological progress of this time period. This Second Industrial Revolution saw the development of the internal combustion engine, petroleum and electricity as sources of power, experimentation with chemicals, and a massive expansion of railroads. World War I and its unprecedented military technologies represented the culmination of the Second Industrial Revolution, which can be especially seen when the technologies used in WWI are compared with those used in the American Civil War.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. APUSH REVIEW: KEY
CONCEPT 5.3, REVISED 2015
(MOST UP-TO-DATE VIDEO)
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
KEY CONCEPT 5.3 TO SUCCEED
2. Key Concept 5.3
“The Union victory in the Civil War and the contested
reconstruction of the South settled the issues of slavery
and secession, but left many questions about the power of
the federal government and citizenship rights.”
Page 57
Big Idea Questions
Why did the North prevail in the Civil War?
What impacts did the 13-15 amendments have on
women and African Americans?
What were ways the South resisted the amendments?
3. Key Concept 5.3, I
“The North’s greater manpower and industrial resources, the leadership of
Abraham Lincoln and others, and the decision to emancipate slaves
eventually led to the Union military victory over the Confederacy in the
devastating Civil War.” - page 57
A) North and South dedicated their economies and societies to fighting the
war
Conscription (draft) instituted in both regions
Opposition persisted in both regions
In the North:
MD newspapers were shut down by Lincoln, NYC Draft Riots - “Rich
man’s war, but a poor man’s fight”
In the South:
Many farmers refused to fight, would not let slaves fight
4. Key Concept 5.3, I
B) Evolvement of Lincoln’s war goals:
Initially, the war was fought to preserve the union
Emancipation Proclamation - issued on 9/22/1862
Helped change the purpose of the war
Kept European powers from siding with the South
Many African Americans enlisted in the Union Army
C) While the war raged on, Lincoln sought to reunify the country
Gettysburg Address - referenced a “new birth of freedom” -
sought to ensure all men truly are equal
5. Key Concept 5.3, I
D) Early on, the Confederacy had successes, but
the Union prevailed due to:
Improvements in leadership and strategy:
Sherman and Grant
Anaconda Plan - blockade
Key Victories:
Antietam - tie, strategic victory for the North
(morale boost, kept Europe out of the war)
Gettysburg - issuance of the Gettysburg
Address
Greater resources:
Larger population and significantly more
factories
Destruction of the South’s infrastructure:
Sherman’s “March to the Sea”
6. Key Concept 5.3, II
“Reconstruction and the Civil War ended slavery, altered
the relationships between the states and the federal
government, and led to debates over new definitions of
citizenship, particularly regarding the rights of African
Americans, women, and other minorities.” - page 58
A) Reconstruction Amendments:
13th - abolished slavery
14th - born in US? You’re a citizen!; equal protection
under the law
15th - universal adult male suffrage
7. Key Concept 5.3, II
B) Impact of the 14th and 15th amendments on the Women’s Rights Movement?
Frederick Douglass and others favored black suffrage PRIOR to women’s suffrage
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony feared women’s suffrage would not be
granted any time soon
C) Effects of Republican Congress?
Change in the balance of power between the Presidency and Congress
Presidential v. Radical Reconstruction - Congress determined when to re-admit states
Johnson’s vetoes and Congressional overrides
Impeachment of Andrew Johnson
Increased political opportunities for blacks:
Robert Smalls - steamer pilot that brought a ship to the Union Navy during the Civil War;
later became a Congressman
Hiram Revels - Senator from MS (Jefferson Davis’ state), first African American to serve
in the Senate
8. Key Concept 5.3, II
C)
Why did Reconstruction ultimately fail?
Determined Southern Resistance:
“Redeemer” governments:
Local and state governments ousted Republican governments
Often done through violence and intimidation
KKK terrorized blacks and Republicans
North’s waning resolve:
Death of Charles Sumner in 1874
Panic of 1873 - tainted the Republican Party and many called for a
smaller government
9. Key Concept 5.3, II
D) Land distribution post in the South Civil War:
Plantation owners owned a majority of the land
Former slaves had difficulty acquiring land:
High interest rates - (crop lien system)
Sharecropping:
Freedmen worked on farms and exchanged labor for using land and
housing
Half of their crops were typically given to the land owner
If cotton prices fell (as did in the 1870s), perpetual debt was
common for most sharecroppers
Most Southern blacks were sharecroppers by 1890
10. Key Concept 5.3, II
E) Ways the 14th and 15th amendments were restricted:
Segregation:
Jim Crow laws - upheld by Plessy v. Ferguson - “Separate but equal”
Violence:
KKK and White League - intimidated African Americans from voting
Supreme Court decisions:
Civil Rights Cases - individuals and private businesses could discriminate
Local political tactics:
Poll taxes, literacy tests, and grandfather clauses
However, these amendments would be used in the 20th century to uphold civil
rights
Brown v. Board - overturned “separate but equal”
