The ending of World War I led to increased unemployment in the United States as wartime production wound down. Inflation increased after the war which raised the cost of living, as companies were reluctant to increase wages for workers. There was concern about general strikes in America at this time. Race riots in 1919 increased enrollment in the NAACP and affected communities differently than previous riots. During the Red Scare, some believed bombings were the work of communists and Attorney General Palmer responded with raids that violated civil rights, though the public reaction was mixed. The Red Scare negatively impacted immigrants. Warren Harding won the election in part due to war weariness and desire for a return to normalcy.

1. The shift from agriculture to industrialization during this per.docx
1. The shift from agriculture to industrialization during this period fundamentally changed American society. Are sweeping social changes always the result of huge economic shifts? If so, why do you think so? If not, then why was industrialization and the Gilded Age different from later changes in the American economy (for example, the Information Age)?
2. The “Muckrakers” helped expose corrupt and unhealthy practices in major corporations and industry. These led to government reforms and a host of new laws to regulate industrial and corporate practices. Is the best way to ensure clean and healthy practices by business to create and enforce laws or should some other mechanism, like the consumer market, be used to keep companies in line? Why?
3. Some of the primary reasons for American entry into the First World War were centered on the issue of economic, military, or political security. Do you think the U.S. still has an interest in achieving global security through military intervention? Why?What alternatives are there that can/should be explored?
4. Prior to the Second World War, the world was a dangerous place in large part due to clashes of cultures and races. What were some of these racial and cultural beliefs? Do we see parallels with today… and is the world a more or less dangerous place than it was during the 1930s and 1940s.
5. World War Two and the Cold War was pitched to Americans, and the world, as a fight between freedom and tyranny. In American, however, major segments of the population remained oppressed. Has America ever really been open to differences in political ideology (Capitalism vs. Socialism or Communism), differences in culture, and differences in racial heritage? Can we say that this divergence between American ideology and American practice was, in itself, another cause that kept the Cold War going?
6. Why do you think that the United States, by the 1970s having an impressive edge in military power and technological achievements, would pursue the policy of Détente to ease Cold War tensions?Did such a move signal American weakness or exhaustion with a long political war?How do you think the thaw in the Cold War affected the United States during the 1970s?
7. How did the policies of Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush (the elder), form a realignment of American values? Given what we know and have experienced in later presidencies and challenges of modern society, do you think these changes stuck or were these merely short-lived expressions of a backlash against the 1960s and 1970s. Why?

World war 1 notes
World War 1 began in 1914 and lasted until 1918. It involved many of the world's leading powers who were divided into two opposing alliances - the Allies and the Central Powers. The immediate cause of the war was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by Serbian nationalists. This triggered a series of events that led major European powers to declare war on each other in support of either the Allies or Central Powers. The United States initially remained neutral but was drawn into the war in 1917 on the side of the Allies after German submarine warfare threatened American merchant shipping and the Zimmermann Telegram proposed a German alliance with Mexico against the US. American involvement helped tip the balance in favor of the Allies,

History of Europe Study guide
This study guide provides questions to help students review key topics relating to the history of Europe, including European exploration, World War I, the Russian Revolution, the period between World Wars I and II, World War II, and the Cold War.

1. The shift from agriculture to industrialization during this per.docx
1. The shift from agriculture to industrialization during this period fundamentally changed American society. Are sweeping social changes always the result of huge economic shifts? If so, why do you think so? If not, then why was industrialization and the Gilded Age different from later changes in the American economy (for example, the Information Age)?
2. The “Muckrakers” helped expose corrupt and unhealthy practices in major corporations and industry. These led to government reforms and a host of new laws to regulate industrial and corporate practices. Is the best way to ensure clean and healthy practices by business to create and enforce laws or should some other mechanism, like the consumer market, be used to keep companies in line? Why?
3. Some of the primary reasons for American entry into the First World War were centered on the issue of economic, military, or political security. Do you think the U.S. still has an interest in achieving global security through military intervention? Why?What alternatives are there that can/should be explored?
4. Prior to the Second World War, the world was a dangerous place in large part due to clashes of cultures and races. What were some of these racial and cultural beliefs? Do we see parallels with today… and is the world a more or less dangerous place than it was during the 1930s and 1940s.
5. World War Two and the Cold War was pitched to Americans, and the world, as a fight between freedom and tyranny. In American, however, major segments of the population remained oppressed. Has America ever really been open to differences in political ideology (Capitalism vs. Socialism or Communism), differences in culture, and differences in racial heritage? Can we say that this divergence between American ideology and American practice was, in itself, another cause that kept the Cold War going?
6. Why do you think that the United States, by the 1970s having an impressive edge in military power and technological achievements, would pursue the policy of Détente to ease Cold War tensions?Did such a move signal American weakness or exhaustion with a long political war?How do you think the thaw in the Cold War affected the United States during the 1970s?
7. How did the policies of Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush (the elder), form a realignment of American values? Given what we know and have experienced in later presidencies and challenges of modern society, do you think these changes stuck or were these merely short-lived expressions of a backlash against the 1960s and 1970s. Why?

World war 1 notes
World War 1 began in 1914 and lasted until 1918. It involved many of the world's leading powers who were divided into two opposing alliances - the Allies and the Central Powers. The immediate cause of the war was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by Serbian nationalists. This triggered a series of events that led major European powers to declare war on each other in support of either the Allies or Central Powers. The United States initially remained neutral but was drawn into the war in 1917 on the side of the Allies after German submarine warfare threatened American merchant shipping and the Zimmermann Telegram proposed a German alliance with Mexico against the US.

Communicating value-of-cc-to-parents
The teacher is introducing the use of Collaborize Classroom, an online discussion platform, to replace some pen and paper homework. Online discussions will give every student an equal voice, help build community, and provide practice communicating respectfully and collaboratively online. Students will develop skills like critical thinking, reading, writing, and problem solving by being exposed to different perspectives from peers and learning at their own pace. Unlike traditional homework where students work independently, the online platform allows students to benefit from others' responses and engage in deeper thinking about topics through questioning and building on ideas from varied viewpoints. This style of learning prepares students for digital communication needs in college and careers.
5 c’s of successful peer editing
The document outlines 5 C's for successful peer editing: 1) Compliment peers by identifying strong elements of their writing. 2) Critique instead of criticize by giving tactful advice to help peers grow. 3) Provide concrete suggestions by being specific about needed improvements rather than vague notes. 4) Clarify by asking leading questions to guide peers to correct errors themselves. 5) Contemplate suggestions by taking time to thoughtfully comment on unclear or underdeveloped areas to most help peers improve.

Key aspects addressed include having signals to get student attention, rules for entering the class, what students do with completed or late work, and expectations for group work to keep students on task.
Classroom management-teaching-routines
Teachers should clearly describe acceptable classroom behaviors and have students demonstrate and practice them. This includes defining different voice levels for various activities like group work, reading time, and discussions. Teachers should also provide ongoing, specific feedback to students about their behaviors and regularly remind them of classroom rules and routines. When a student misbehaves, the teacher should address it privately and have the student reflect on why their actions were inappropriate and how to improve their behavior next time.
