Post test blog

     I'm writing my blog right after my test to have it clear in my mind and to not have as much homework when I get home after practice. I felt pretty good about the test today and that I hope everyone did well because I would like cookies. After reviewing and blogging for so many days I knew most of the four point questions. The one question I didn't know was the profession that used shorthand. I answered secretary because I remember the impression in the front of the class but I didn't know for a fact that I was right. I feel confident on the short essay questions because I had mapped out what I was going to write and I felt like I had a good answer. Overall the test was fair the only difficult parts were the essay questions if you didn't know what to write or if you were sleepy.

The rise of Christianity

 Toady in class instead of reviewing the test we read and took notes on the next three sections. The first section was on the Rise of Christianity and talked about how Jesus' teachings spread. The most important reason they spread was because his teachings brought salvation to all. Christianity was a vision that a Roman emperor had before he went into battle. They won the battle and he made it so Christians would no longer be persecuted.

Test review

  Most of today in class was spent reviewing last weeks test from last week. Class was last mod today so everyone was more lethargic than usual. Since I was the only person to get a 100% on the test I really didn't need the review. The only plus side of reviewing was I had time to write the answers on the test so I could use it without my scan tron sheet. The rest of class time was spent taking notes on the population power point. We discussed immigration and emigration and why. We used the example of Canada and why people would want to immigrate there because their rate is so high. We came to the conclusion that the healthcare paid for by the government was a pull factor in people's decisions to move to Canada.

Greek Mytholgy

     Today class was supposed to mainly be on taking notes on Greek mythology,  but we got pretty off topic. We got off topic and spent most of class on questioning the credibility of sources. This started when students questioned if the Greek god's really weren't real and it was concluded there was no real way to prove there existence or disprove it. Then we started to broaden that to all religions. There is no real proof that God existed or didn't exist that is why people must have faith. Then we moved o to history where you said that history is written by the victors which means the civilizations who survived and passed on their history wrote about their history from their point of view. One example is if Germany won world war two, Hitler would be known as a great leader who defeated the allies and killed off the "evil" Jews. We concluded with that all these factors should be considered before coming to a conclusion on how history could have played out.
