1. After the Civil War, the West experienced major economic and population booms driven by mining, ranching, farming, and railroad expansion.
2. The Transcontinental Railroad connected the East and West coasts, facilitating the transportation of goods and people across the country.
3. Various groups including miners, ranchers, farmers, and African Americans migrated West seeking opportunities, but also faced challenges of harsh environments, conflicts over resources, and social tensions.
The Homestead Act of 1862 aimed to promote westward expansion by granting land claims to male citizens and immigrants who would improve the land. While some impoverished farmers benefited, much of the land went to speculators who sold it at inflated prices or to non-farmers. Industrialization later led to large corporate farms replacing small homesteads in the West. The Homestead Act attracted settlers seeking land, riches, freedom, jobs, adventure, and family in the growing nation.
The completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 connected the eastern and western United States by rail, making transportation of goods and people more reliable and fostering westward expansion. The government supported railroad construction through huge land grants and loans. Thousands of immigrants, including Chinese and Irish workers, built the railroads in dangerous conditions with accidents and diseases. Railroads connected cities and towns, promoting industry, trade, and economic interdependence but also led to corruption like the Credit Mobilier scandal. Farmers organized as Grangers to demand regulation of railroad rates and prices, resulting in early regulatory laws and the Supreme Court upholding state regulation in Munn v. Illinois in 1877. The Interstate Commerce Commission was established in 1887 to regulate railroads
1) The rise of violent white supremacist groups like the Ku Klux Klan led to intimidation and violence against Republican voters, especially African Americans in the South.
2) Attempts by Southern Democrats to regain political control through intimidation of Republican voters succeeded in Mississippi, Florida, South Carolina, and Louisiana.
3) The end of Reconstruction was marked by the Compromise of 1877, which withdrew federal troops from the South, allowing home rule to be restored under Democratic white supremacist governments.
The document summarizes key events and policies of Reconstruction from 1865 to 1877. It describes Lincoln and Johnson's initial lenient Reconstruction plans, the passage of the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery, the imposition of harsher terms by Radical Republicans in Congress, and their efforts to establish rights for freedmen through legislation like the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and military rule in the South. However, Reconstruction was met with resistance through laws like the Black Codes. Corruption weakened Republican control, violence increased, and the Compromise of 1877 marked the official end of Reconstruction and withdrawal of federal troops from the South.
The document summarizes the Reconstruction period after the American Civil War. It discusses that President Lincoln and Congress disagreed over Reconstruction plans, that the end of the war granted freedom to African Americans but they still faced many challenges, and that President Johnson began the process of Reconstruction but faced opposition from Radical Republicans over issues like the Black Codes. It also notes that the 14th and 15th Amendments were passed to protect citizenship and voting rights for African Americans, and that Reconstruction helped reform the South but its end led to a rollback of African American rights.

The document discusses the Reconstruction era in the United States from 1865 to 1877 following the Civil War. There were three main plans for reconstructing the South: Lincoln's plan called for Southern states to form new governments when 10% of voters took a loyalty oath; Johnson's plan was similar but stricter; and the Radical Republicans passed laws overseeing the military reconstruction of the South and protecting the rights of freed slaves. The Reconstruction era brought both successes like rebuilding the South and establishing public schools, but also failures as racial discrimination and violence increased.
The Reconstruction policy had a significant impact in South Carolina. Under Presidential Reconstruction, Black Codes were passed to restrict freedmen's rights and the Freedmen's Bureau helped former slaves but its land redistribution was reversed. Congressional Reconstruction established military districts, required ratification of the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery, and passed the 14th Amendment establishing citizenship rights. However, South Carolina refused to ratify these amendments, leading Congress to require it write a new constitution recognizing the amendments under continued military governance.
Reconstruction aimed to rebuild the South after the Civil War and guarantee rights for freed slaves, but faced opposition. Radical Republicans sought to punish the South and protect freedmen, while Southerners and Moderate Republicans wanted reconciliation. The Reconstruction Amendments granted citizenship and voting rights to freedmen, but Southern states undermined these with Black Codes and later Jim Crow laws. Reconstruction ended in 1877 through a compromise that withdrew federal troops from the South in exchange for certifying the presidential election, ending Republican rule and protections for freedmen.
This document provides an overview of Reconstruction after the Civil War from 1865-1877. It describes Lincoln's plan for the readmission of Confederate states which was opposed by the Wade-Davis Bill proposing stricter terms. After Lincoln's assassination, his successor Andrew Johnson implemented a lenient Reconstruction plan that angered Republicans by allowing the passage of Black Codes denying African American rights. This led to the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and proposals for the 14th Amendment, resulting in Johnson vetoing bills and a battle with Congress over civil rights.
The document discusses the major challenges facing the United States after the Civil War, including how to rebuild the South, bring Confederate states back into the Union, and grant freedom and rights to former slaves. There were opposing views between President Lincoln and Congress on the speed and extent of Reconstruction.

The document summarizes Reconstruction and the New South after the Civil War. It describes the huge problems facing the South after the war ended, including widespread ruin and refugees needing food, shelter, and work. It then outlines Lincoln's plan for Reconstruction, the passage of the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery, the rise of Radical Republican control pushing black suffrage and civil rights, the end of Reconstruction leading to the loss of black voting rights and rise of Jim Crow, and the eventual economic recovery of the South in later decades.
The document discusses the Reconstruction era following the Civil War. It outlines several plans for Reconstruction proposed by Lincoln, Congress, and Andrew Johnson. Lincoln's 10% Plan was for Southern states to form new governments when 10% of voters pledged loyalty to the Union. The Radical Republican's Wade-Davis Bill required 50% loyalty and banned slavery in new state constitutions. Andrew Johnson's Presidential Reconstruction was more lenient, requiring loyalty oaths but allowing discrimination against freed slaves through Black Codes. This prompted the Radical Republicans to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and propose the 14th Amendment guaranteeing citizenship and equal protection. They also placed the South under military rule and passed the 15th Amendment banning racial restrictions on voting.
This document provides an overview of key topics in U.S. history covered by Mrs. Moore's class, including the foundations of American political and social thought, industrialization, the world wars, and post-WWII domestic issues.

The document outlines some of the key factors that contributed to the start of the American Civil War, including economic and political differences between the industrial North and agricultural South over the issues of slavery, states' rights, and tariffs. The Missouri Compromise of 1820 and subsequent compromises attempted to balance the number of slave and free states but did not resolve the underlying tensions between the regions. Abraham Lincoln's election in 1860 as the first Republican president was the final trigger for Southern states to secede and form the Confederate States of America.
Covers the events that occurred in the aftermath of the American Civil War, including the readmission of former Confederate States to the Union, the establishment of the Freedmen's Bureau and the Black Codes, the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, and the debates over the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution.
There were several plans proposed to reconstruct the Union and address the treatment of freed slaves after the Civil War. Lincoln favored quick readmission of Southern states with no protections for freedmen. Congress supported more radical plans guaranteeing black rights and excluding ex-Confederate leaders from power. Andrew Johnson initially followed Lincoln's lenient approach but Congress passed the 14th Amendment and Radical Reconstruction plans over Johnson's vetoes, dividing reconstruction along partisan lines and leading to Johnson's impeachment.
This document provides background information on Abraham Lincoln and the Reconstruction era following the American Civil War. It discusses key events and policies from Lincoln's presidency through the Johnson and Grant administrations, including the Emancipation Proclamation, the 13th and 14th Amendments, the Freedmen's Bureau, and the rise of Jim Crow laws in the South.

Lesson 4 discusses the post-war Southern economy, the rise of sharecropping, and the end of Reconstruction as federal troops withdrew and segregation and Jim Crow laws limited African American rights.
This document provides an overview of Reconstruction in the United States following the Civil War. It describes the opposing views between Radical Republicans, defeated Southern leaders, freed slaves, and Moderate Republicans on how to rebuild the South. Key policies and events are outlined, including the establishment of the Freedmen's Bureau, Black Codes passed by Southern states, and the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments guaranteeing rights to freed slaves. Important figures like Abraham Lincoln, Robert E. Lee, and Frederick Douglass who influenced Reconstruction are also mentioned. The document concludes that Reconstruction ended in 1877 with compromises over the 1876 election and the removal of federal troops from the South.
This document provides an overview of Reconstruction after the U.S. Civil War, including key terms, people, events, and policies. It discusses the clashes between Congress and President Andrew Johnson over Reconstruction plans, the imposition of Radical Reconstruction and new Constitutional amendments protecting rights of freed slaves, and the eventual end of federal enforcement and return of power to white Southerners, limiting rights for African Americans.
Lincoln, Congress, and Johnson each proposed different plans for Reconstruction after the Civil War. Lincoln's lenient 10% plan was rejected by Radical Republicans who wanted black suffrage added. The Wade-Davis Bill required an "iron clad" oath and constitutional conventions. Johnson largely followed Lincoln's plan but southern states passed discriminatory Black Codes. In response, Congress passed the 14th Amendment and the Radical Reconstruction plan of 1867 that established military rule and required black male suffrage. However, enforcement of equality was inadequate and the compromise of 1877 removed federal troops, ending the Reconstruction era.
The Single National Curriculum for mathematics aims to develop mathematical literacy, logical thinking, and the ability to solve real-life problems. It is divided into four strands: numbers and operations, algebra, measurements and geometry, and data handling. The curriculum also emphasizes developing students' spiritual, moral, social, and cultural values through mathematics. It takes a concrete-pictorial-abstract approach and uses real-life situations, stories, mental math, and inquiry to engage students in mathematical reasoning from grades 1 to 5. Assessment includes formative methods like tests and projects as well as summative term and final exams. Teaching resources include manuals, workbooks, and online materials.
This document outlines a unit on number operations from the Single National Curriculum for Class 2. It includes 1) comprehensive student learning outcomes like adding two-digit numbers, 2) using conceptual understanding with examples, 3) integrated methodologies like a lab activity using spinners to practice addition, 4) student worksheets and homework assignments, and 5) assessment measures like a class quiz with addition word problems. Remedial assistance is also provided for students who need extra help mastering the key concepts.
The document compares the mathematics curriculum and standards between the 2006 National Curriculum and the 2020 Single National Curriculum (SNC) in Pakistan. It shows that the core strands and standards of Numbers and Operations, Algebra, Geometry and Measurement, and Data Handling remain the same, but Reasoning and Logical Thinking is now underpinned across all strands in the SNC. The SNC also re-groups grades, updates benchmarks, standards, and student learning outcomes to emphasize application, problem-solving, and mathematical thinking over rote learning. Unit structures, weightages, and cognitive domains are also adjusted in the SNC.
The 2020 curriculum focuses on developing logical and procedural fluency through reasoning and situational based questions compared to the 2006 curriculum which focused on conceptual understanding and real life applications. Some key differences include introducing new concepts through warm-up activities and using math labs rather than real-life situations, assessing students through portfolios and project-based work rather than just pen and paper tests, and incorporating ICT like GeoGebra. Both curricula aim to develop conceptual understanding, but the 2020 version emphasizes linking past experiences and deriving formulas independently through activities while the 2006 version focused more on memorizing formulas through worksheets.
This document discusses the key concepts of gravitation, including:
1) Isaac Newton discovered the law of universal gravitation after observing an apple fall from a tree, realizing all objects attract each other with a gravitational force.
2) Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
3) The gravitational force between two objects follows Newton's third law of motion, with equal but opposite forces between the objects.
This document discusses Newton's law of universal gravitation. It begins by stating the aims of understanding force of gravitation and deriving the mathematical law. It then defines gravity as a force that causes every object in the universe to attract each other. The key points are that Newton's law states that the gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The document derives the gravitational formula and notes that gravitational force is very small between everyday objects, which is why we do not notice it.
This chapter discusses gravitation and covers:
- Isaac Newton discovered gravity by observing an apple fall from a tree.
- Newton concluded that a force called gravitation causes objects to attract each other, deriving the inverse square law of universal gravitation.
- The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
This document discusses ratios and proportions. It provides a hierarchy of ratio-related concepts including fractions, equivalent ratios, ratios, unitary method, proportions, direct proportions, and inverse proportions. It includes learning objectives about understanding ratios, using ratio notation, dividing quantities in a given ratio, and recognizing the relationship between ratios and proportions. It provides examples of setting up and comparing ratios between quantities like weights of objects. It also gives examples of ratio assessment questions and converting units to the same units to simplify ratios.
The document discusses the difference between active and passive voice. In passive voice, the subject receives the action while in active voice, the subject performs the action. Passive voice uses helping verbs like "be" and "by" while active voice is more concise and direct. The document provides examples of sentences in both voices and offers tips on changing passive sentences to active sentences by identifying the subject and changing the verb form.
The document summarizes sections from Chapter 19 of Magruder's American Government textbook about civil liberties protections in the United States Constitution. It discusses the rights to freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition as protected by the First Amendment, and how the Supreme Court has interpreted and placed limits on these rights over time. It also examines how principles of limited government and federalism have impacted civil liberties.
The document discusses checks and balances in the US government. It outlines the checks that each branch of government (Congress, the presidency, and the judiciary) has on the others, such as congressional oversight of the presidency and judicial review. Potential threats to checks and balances are also examined, like executive orders and signing statements. Finally, it notes that the US has a stronger system of checks and balances than the UK to limit government power.
Federalism divides power between the national and state governments in order to limit the power of government. The national government has enumerated powers listed in the Constitution like regulating interstate commerce, while states have reserve powers like regulating intrastate commerce. This system aims to promote political participation, innovation, and diversity while avoiding concentrated power. However, it can also lead to complexity, inequity between states, and conflicts between levels of government.
This chapter introduces key concepts in the study of American government such as who governs, the purpose of government, and different theories of government. It defines political power, authority, and legitimacy. It also outlines different forms of democracy like direct and representative democracy and discusses the Framers' view of balancing popular views with limiting majority abuse of power. Finally, it summarizes theories of government like Marxism, elitism, bureaucratic, and pluralist theories.
This document is from an American history textbook and outlines several lessons on key issues facing the United States in the 21st century, including national security, foreign policy, poverty, and the environment. It introduces topics like terrorism, surveillance, globalization, and climate change. Each lesson contains subsections that provide more details on related policies, events, debates, and challenges. The overall document serves as a guide for students to learn about significant domestic and international concerns confronting America today.
Activism and new civil rights legislation in the 1950s and 1960s advanced equal rights for African Americans. However, disagreements arose among civil rights groups about strategies and priorities, leading to a more violent period. Court decisions and laws banned segregation and expanded voting rights, but resistance remained strong in some areas.
The document summarizes key aspects of US national security policymaking, including foreign policy instruments like the military, economics, and diplomacy. It outlines actors involved in foreign relations such as international organizations, regional groups, companies, NGOs, and individuals. It describes policymakers like the President, diplomats, national security establishment, and Congress. It provides an overview of periods in US foreign policy history from isolationism to the present War on Terror. It also briefly mentions military policy areas.
The document provides an overview of key events during the Clinton presidency and Bush administration from the 1990s through early 2000s. It discusses Clinton's election in 1992 on a platform of economic recovery, his domestic policy achievements including budget balancing and welfare reform, as well as foreign policy challenges like the Oslo Accords. The document then outlines Bush's very close election in 2000 that was ultimately decided by the Supreme Court, as well as the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the largest act of terrorism in modern US history.
The document provides an overview of American history during the 1920s, known as the "Roaring Twenties". It discusses several key topics:
1. The US sought normalcy and isolationism after WWI amid labor unrest and immigration quotas. Consumer goods fueled economic growth and living standards increased sharply.
2. Cultural conflicts emerged as customs and values changed rapidly. Prohibition sparked speakeasies and bootlegging while fundamentalism battled modern science. Women gained independence as flappers while also entering the workforce.
3. Popular culture grew through movies, radio, and sports. Mass media and education influenced American society and values significantly during this period of social and economic change.
The document provides an overview of American history from ancient societies in the Americas to European colonization. It is divided into 5 lessons:
1) Societies of the Americas to 1492 - Diverse native cultures developed across North and South America, with some forming complex civilizations and empires.
2) West African Societies Around 1492 - Powerful kingdoms like Songhai, Benin, and Kongo flourished in West Africa and traded extensively prior to European contact.
3) European Societies Around 1492 - Developments in western Europe led to the Age of Exploration, as nations like Portugal and Spain sought new trade routes and wealth overseas.
4) Transatlantic Encounters -

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.
