2. Review OPVL generic considerations and then apply these to your specific sources.
3. Review Binder Assignments/USG especially as they pertain to the prescribed subject topics (page 2 of your Paper 1 Tips)

Some of you requested another practice paper 1.  Although I do not have that available for this exam, the Oxford Course Companion has source focused activities.  This is much more detailed information on your prescribed subject than the Pearson text.  That said, don't go overboard IBers!  If you have been paying attention, you are prepared to tackle this with just a good night's sleep.

Welcome to IB 20!

Password for all reading material in IB20 this year will be: gocards.

Week 1

• Here are some things we will begin working on this week.  At the bottom you will find a suggested work calendar (SWC) for our first unit on World War 1.

• Please plan to purchase a 1 or 1.5 inch 3-ring binder with 6 dividers to leave in class.   You will need a different notebook/binder/folder for your regular class notes and supplies.

 Primary considerations for this course:

• What about the 20th Century leads to the rise of so many totalitarian dictatorships?
• What is the appeal of utopian schemes, and to what extent are they successful in the 20th century?
• Contrast the profusion of violence with advancements in the protection of human rights in the 20th century.
