Welcome to our first wiki experience! This is designed to enhance our understanding of nineteenth century imperialism. You are all responsible for reading Chapter 24 on your own, but our wiki pages will serve as your notes.

EQ: What gives one group of people or nation the right to dominate over others?

We've already reviewed the causes of imperialism in class. Now, use these pages to discover similarities in imperial practices as well as similarities in the responses of the colonized.

You will be broken up into 3 groups and each group will be assigned to 1 section of the chapter. Within your groups, each person should be assigned to one of the following tasks:
 * reading & note taking for part A. and part. B (so 2 different people will collaborate)
 * editing (1 person who has strong language skills)
 * making an objective quiz (2 people each make separate 5 question quizzes on your section)
 * finding a political cartoon from your region & time period (include 2 to 3 sentence explanation of your image)

The responsibilities should be divided equally and according to people's strengths.


 * Grades:**


 * You will get a participation grade for your contributions to your wiki page.
 * You will get a group grade for the completed wiki. It will take into account such things as content, design, mechanics, group collaboration.
 * You will also have a quiz on the material (potentially made out of your own quiz questions) OR a seminar on the essential question as your final assessment.
