The Cold War began in 1945 after World War 2 and lasted until 1991. It was a period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and its satellite states (the Eastern Bloc), and the United States and its allies. Key events in the early Cold War from 1945-1952 under President Truman include the Truman Doctrine providing aid to Turkey and Greece to contain communism in Europe, the Marshall Plan to rebuild Western Europe, the 1948-1949 Berlin Airlift when the US flew supplies into West Berlin after Soviet blockades, and the 1950-1953 Korean War where US troops fought against communist North Korea and China.

It discusses key events and policies that defined the escalating tensions and arms race between the two superpowers, including Winston Churchill's "Iron Curtain" speech in 1946 marking the beginning of the Cold War; the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan establishing policies of containment and economic assistance for democratic nations; the formation of NATO in 1949; the Korean War from 1950 to 1953; McCarthyism and the Second Red Scare in the 1950s; and the Eisenhower administration's policies towards the Cold War in the 1950s.
Ch 21_The New Deal
Franklin D. Roosevelt overcame polio to become governor of New York and take control of the Democratic party. He was elected president in 1932, campaigning to fix the country after the Great Depression. As president, FDR launched the New Deal which included massive relief programs and major reforms through agencies like the CCC, FERA, and CWA. The New Deal aimed to restore confidence and provide temporary relief while pursuing long-term economic recovery. FDR faced criticism from some but was overwhelmingly reelected in 1936.
Beginnings of the Cold War - Cold War I
The Cold War began as tensions rose between the United States and Soviet Union following World War II. Stalin imposed communist control over Eastern Europe, drawing an "Iron Curtain" across the continent. The US responded with the Truman Doctrine and Marshall Plan to contain the spread of communism and help rebuild Europe. When the Soviets blockaded West Berlin in 1948, the US organized the Berlin Airlift to supply the city from the air until the blockade was lifted in 1949. NATO was formed in 1949 as a military alliance between Western nations aimed at deterring Soviet expansion.

The cold war
The Cold War began in 1945 after World War 2 between the United States and its allies, and the Soviet Union and its allies. This led to the formation of opposing military alliances like NATO and the Warsaw Pact and tensions including arms races and proxy wars. It also resulted in Soviet espionage efforts in the West through spies like the Cambridge Five who betrayed secrets to Moscow. The Cold War lasted over 45 years until the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s.

This poster is trying to advertise the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). It is obvious that the workers for the CCC complete conservation and forestry tasks like planting trees based on the imagery. I think this poster would have recruited many people during the Great Depression because it promised work and a paycheck to unemployed young men. The poster depicts the work as productive and meaningful while improving the environment. Based on promoting employment, service, and being outdoors, I would have been interested in joining the CCC program if I was in that position during the 1930s.
Truman doctrine and containment
1. After WWII, the US and USSR emerged as rival superpowers competing for global influence, leading to tensions in Europe and the establishment of communist governments in Eastern Europe under Stalin.

Cold war conflicts
The Cold War was a non-military conflict between the United States and Soviet Union from 1945-1990 that led to proxy wars around the world. The ideological struggle pitted capitalist democracies led by the US against communist totalitarian states within the Soviet bloc. Both sides aimed to spread their influence and contain the other through espionage, arms buildup including nuclear weapons, and involvement in conflicts in countries not directly allied with either power. Major events included the Berlin Blockade, Korean War, Cuban Missile Crisis, and Vietnam War.
Chapter 26 - The Beginning Of The Cold War
The Cold War began after WWII as tensions rose between the US and USSR over differing political and economic ideologies. The USSR sought to increase its security and spread of communism while the US aimed to promote democracy and capitalism. This led to divisions in Europe with the Iron Curtain and an arms race between the two superpowers as each sought to contain the influence of the other through policies like containment and deterrence using nuclear weapons. During the 1950s, conflicts in Korea and fears of communist subversion at home exacerbated Cold War tensions.
Hogan's History- Cold War Begins
The Cold War began as tension grew between Western allies and the Soviet Union following World War II. The European continent was divided between Western democracies allied with the US and Soviet-occupied Eastern Europe behind an "Iron Curtain." In response to the Soviet threat, NATO was formed in 1949 as a military alliance of Western nations, while the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact emerged as an opposing alliance. The period saw an arms race between the US and USSR and numerous proxy wars as the two superpowers vied for global influence and sought to contain the spread of the other's ideology.

Major events and policies on both the international front and home front in the US are outlined, including the Truman Doctrine, NATO, the Warsaw Pact, the Korean War, and McCarthyism.
18 Origins Of The Cold War
The Cold War divided the world into three sides after WWII - the Soviet Union, United States, and developing nations. The Soviets refused free elections in Eastern Europe and installed communist governments, while the US adopted a containment policy to stop communism's spread. Notable events included the Marshall Plan to rebuild Europe, the Berlin Airlift, the USSR developing an atomic bomb in 1949, the creation of NATO and Warsaw Pact alliances, and the Korean War stalemate of 1953. Fears of communism at home led to investigations and blacklists in the US government and film industry during this period.
Cold war
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the United States and Soviet Union from 1947-1991. It involved ideological and military competition between capitalism and communism. Key events that heightened tensions included the Berlin Blockade, establishment of NATO and the Warsaw Pact, the Korean War, Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam War, and Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. The space race and arms race further demonstrated the technological and military supremacy between the two superpowers. Growing economic troubles in the Soviet Union and diplomatic negotiations between Reagan and Gorbachev contributed to the decline of communist rule and end of the Cold War.
The Cold War
Germany surrendered in 1945 and was divided and occupied by the Allies. The Potsdam Conference established this division and began de-Nazification efforts. Europe was largely bankrupt after the war while the US and USSR emerged as new superpowers. The Soviets wanted to rebuild the German economy to their benefit while the Americans prioritized self-determination, leading to the origins of the Cold War between them. Japan also surrendered in 1945 after atomic bombs were dropped and was remade under US occupation with a new constitution and demilitarization. These postwar changes established the foundations for the ensuing global Cold War conflict between capitalist and communist ideologies.
Cold War 1945 1960
After WWII, tensions grew between the US and USSR as they emerged as rival superpowers. The USSR set up communist governments in Eastern Europe and cut off access to West Berlin, leading to the Berlin Airlift. NATO and the Warsaw Pact were formed as military alliances. During this time, fears of communism spread in the US through events like the Hollywood blacklist and trials of accused spies like the Rosenbergs. The development of nuclear weapons by both sides increased tensions further in an arms race and space race throughout the 1950s.
Ch. 21 reg cold war
The Cold War began after WWII as tensions grew between the US and Soviet Union due to their differing goals of security and democracy. This led to an era of confrontation as the two nations competed for influence in Europe and other parts of the world. The tensions were exacerbated by events like the Soviet takeover of Eastern Europe, the Berlin Blockade, the creation of NATO, and China becoming communist. The Korean War further heightened fears of communism's spread. During this early Cold War period, the Red Scare led to widespread paranoia in the US regarding communist infiltration.
The United States and the Cold War
The document summarizes key events and individuals related to the Cold War in the late 1940s and 1950s:
- The Truman Doctrine of 1947 promised US support to countries resisting communism and led to the policy of containment of communism. This aided Greece in defeating communist guerrillas.
- The Marshall Plan (1947-1948) provided US aid to Western Europe to rebuild after WWII and prevent the spread of communism.
- Events like the Berlin Blockade (1948-1949) and formation of NATO (1949) increased tensions between the US and USSR in Europe.
- The Korean War (1950-1953) further escalated Cold War hostilities as US and UN forces fought against North Korea and
America in the fifties

2) The Korean War broke out in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, leading to UN and US involvement in the war.
3) Events like the Rosenberg trial and Senator McCarthy's accusations of communism contributed to the climate of fear around communism in America during this period.
East Asia after WWII
Here are the answers to the questions:
2. The domino theory described how communism could spread from one nation to neighboring countries. President Eisenhower believed that if one country "fell" to communism, the surrounding nations would likely follow. This theory was used to justify US involvement in conflicts like the Vietnam War to prevent further communist takeovers.
3. The US involvement in Vietnam escalated after the Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964. This incident involved alleged attacks by North Vietnamese forces against US destroyers in the Gulf of Tonkin. In response, Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution which gave President Lyndon B. Johnson broad authority to assist any Southeast Asian nation. This allowed the US to escalate its military assistance

Visual teaching and learning
This document provides an introduction to using visual thinking strategies (VTS) in the classroom. It discusses how VTS focuses on having students observe an image and describe what they see before being given any context from the teacher. This engagement strategy avoids passive learning and instead has students share their own interpretations. The teacher's role is to facilitate discussion by pointing at details, clarifying observations, and confirming students' responses without judgment, in order to keep students actively involved.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
