This document summarizes a presentation about using Google Drive to facilitate blended learning for medical students in their obstetrics rotation. It discusses how two groups of year 4 students used Google Drive to collaboratively reflect on their clinical experiences through active self-assessment, sharing word clouds created from their feedback, and engaging with each other's documents both in class and remotely. The educators found benefits like increased student buy-in, respect for peers' work, and learning new online skills. Challenges included the time commitment, ensuring all students had Google accounts, and variable internet access. Overall, Google Drive provided a flexible platform for asynchronous and synchronous collaboration that aligns with the shifting educational landscape toward more technology-enhanced learning.

"Миротворец-это тот, кто кормит крокодила
в надежде, что тот съест его последним".
Уинстон Черчилль
Европа за свою многовековую историю прошла через множество войн. Из
предыдущих войн человечество не извлекло уроков и упрямо двигалось к
самоуничтожению. Европейские войны постепенно переросли в мировые. По
окончанию войн подписывались мирные договора, но не один договор не
устранял причин возникновения войн. 2-я мировая война явилась
продолжением агрессивной прусской политики - захвата жизненного
пространства.

ПРЕДИСЛОВИЕ КО ВТОРОЙ МИРОВОЙ ВОЙНЕ. PREFACE TO THE SECOND WORLD WARprivate
Закончившаяся 1-я мировая война вечного мира народам не принесла. Условия Версальского договора, подписанного по окончанию 1-й мировой
войны, создавшего новые государства - Австрию, Венгрию, Чехословакию и Югославию лишь обострили противоречия, как между странами Антанты, так и между Германией и ведущими странами Антанты. Главной движущей силой среди недовольных стран была Германия. Над миром повисла угроза новой мировой войны. Мировой экономический кризис 1929-1932 гг. привел к катастрофическому спаду внешней торговли и массовой безработице - в Англии более 2 млн, в США 15 млн. и в Германии 6 млн. безработных.
Началась экономическая борьба, и мир разделился. Англия, США и Франция могли обеспечить себя, а Германия и Япония не обеспечивали себя самостоятельно и нуждались в привозном сырье, но кризис внешней торговли
не предоставлял им такую возможность. Выход из экономического кризиса Германия и Япония решили искать в войне. В октябре 1922 года к власти в
Италии пришли фашисты, под руководством Муссолини. Капиталистические страны признали Муссолини, так как он считался борцом с коммунизмом. Япония в 1931 г. оккупирует Маньчжурию и выходит из Лиги Наций в марте
1933 года. Экономический кризис Германии и помощь крупных предпринимателей и банкиров привел Гитлера к власти. 30 января 1933 г.
Гитлер стал рейхсканцлером Германии и в октябре выходит из Лиги Наций. После поджога Рейхстага были ликвидированы все оппозиционные партии, изменена судебная система и к 1938 г. в Германии была установлена нацистская диктатура.

Big Ben is the nickname for the largest bell of the Great Clock of Westminster in the Houses of Parliament in London. It is contained within the clock tower, which at 96 meters is the third tallest free-standing clock tower in the world.
