Global Civilizations Today in History

Each class period (except Mondays) in Global Civilizations will start with Today in History. Two students will be assigned each day on a rotating basis to present to the class a highlight in history that occurred on the date they are to report. Students may choose any event in history to report on, but it should be of some historical consequence (not my uncle was born on this date in 1960, no matter how special you think your uncle is). If there is an event that corresponds with the time period we are studying, students are strongly encouraged to use that event. Students must include a work cited for their source.

Though students can any resource they choose, an excellent website that I recommend for the assignment is the History Channels This Day in History. address:

http://www.historychannel.com/tdih/tdih.jsp?category=leadstory

Other sites include:

http://www.worldhistory.com/This-Week.htm

http://www.encyclopedia.com/index.asp

Students must turn in a - 1 page written account of the event that they are reporting on. Include the date and year of the event, the major figures involved, where the event took place, and its historical significance.
