For tonight, you are to proceed to Part Two of the History Head assignment.
Go to the class Protopage, linked up here. (You will want to bookmark this page; you'll be going back here a lot...) There you will find "containers" (for lack of a better word) for the blog addresses of your classmates' blogs in the form of links embedded within their names. Click on the name to open the link to the person's blog.
In class today you should have taken note of your peers' work from other societies. Tonight, you are to go to two (2) of your peers' blogs where they have posted pictures of their History Heads, and post a comment about their work. (You may not visit a blog about your society; go to a new society. So, if you did China, you can't comment on another China project.) Post comments on the blogs for your peers to read AND post a copy of your comments to your own blog as a new post. In your comment you should do the following:
1. Start with a greeting!
2. Complement the work: point out something that was done well;
3. Constructively critique the work: point out something that could have been better and suggest how it could be done better;
4. Describe one way in which the two societies were similar--something that overlapped;
5. Describe one way in which the two societies were different--something that was divergent;
6. Ask at least one question of the author--what do you want to know more about? this could be about a choice the author made, it could be seeking clarity about a confusing image, or the arrangement of material...
7. Sign your post
Then go to the textbook and read pages 159-168. We are off to Persia. I strongly recommend you take written notes, but I am not checking them. Yet...
