World History Homework One
Instructor: Andy Schlafly
Read the lecture, and then reread it if that is helpful.
For written assignments, this course has two tracks: Honors and regular. The Honors track is for those who want to excel on a College Board exam, or are simply very interested in history and want to learn more about it. Students can try the Honors track and then drop back to the regular track later if they like, so there is no harm in attempting the Honors track.
Most questions can be answered easily by using the lecture, but a little outside research is always welcome, since every source has a different viewpoint and details. Use www.conservapedia.com if you want to look up any terms you do not understand.
These questions require at most one or a few phrases to answer; you do not need to write complete sentences.
The preferred way to submit your answers is by posting them online at:
