Ap exam

I thought the qp exam went pretty well. I didn't like how long and how much reading and writting it was. I thought with the multiple choice I could narrow it down to 2 answers each time and made it easier to answer the question, I thought the multiple choice was easy. For the essays I thought they were pretty easy especially the dbg. The cot and cc were okay, I did not know much about them but I used world knowledge to answer them the best I could. For the review game I thought it was a good help. I'm not a big fan of the fly shutter game but I really though that other game was a lot more fun and helped me know a lot more.

Khan

Khan was a very interesting man but he was not a physco, he might have been in a way crazy for what he did but thats not bad for being a ruler. Something's he did like cutting the people's ears off might make you think he was but it is just his way of showing his strength over everyone else. He might have killed so many people but he is not psyhco for that because it's what he needed to do in order to have all that he had. He fought for what he needed and that does not make him crazy at all, he might have had weird rituals and everything else but it's just like ever other empire, theirs always some crazy things that go on in an empire.

Mongol Trials

I thought the trials were very fun and was something I would likento do again. I enjoyed it for the most part. I thought I did pretty well, I tried defending our side as much as possible but I will regret having Futba questioning me because she pretty much put words own my mouth and made me say we did kidnapping. I view the Mongols as very strong empire and had a lot of power and what they did was only to become stronger. They might have killed a lot of people but they did it in war, people are expected to die it war they should not be considered ruthless for this. They did what they needed to do to get a kingdom and that's what had them a strong empire and that's why we should admire their way. I would find them guilty for kidnapping because they did take alot of people against their will but for genocide or terrorism I would say not guilty because they killers peoe during war and that's not genocide or terrorism, they did not go out and have the notion to just kill people of one religion or one civilization, they did what they had to to build a huge empire.

Day 4

We are trying to finish are project tonight so we dont have to worry about it tomorrow. We feel that this project is weather easy and with the infomation we have found we find it easy to make converstation. We did just the first crusade in school and hoping to finsh it all as i speak. And we did eventually finish it tonight and the final project will be posted in my next post.

Day 3

Today me and Rythm had study together and decided to use the libary database were we found a lot more infomation and a great link and article that helped expalin the crusades in a lot better detail. We plan on starting the twitter feed either tonight or tomorrow and plan to have it all done by then.

Day 2

We have decided that we will do this project over twitter. We will pretend to be two soliders in the muslim army named Asif and Saim. They will have converstation about each of our crusades in a twitter convertstaion. We looked all over the web for different info using all the search engines and found that wikipedia had the best infomation and always was the first link ..

Day 1

For this crusade's project i have decided that i am going to work with Rythm and do the project on the first, fourth and eighth crusades. As me and Rythm felt that it would be a good idea to do the first, middle and last to show a change over time. We feel that we should start our search on the web and see what others have to say..

St. Benedict The Rule 4 and 5

4. The monasteries that kep to his rules would be very institutions because these rules set the guidelines for them and led to health ways. If everyone followed these they would have a good thing and everyone would be safe. The rules made it so everyone could live a happy and peaceful lifestyle well at the same time they would have a good afterlife. Like for example rules 3-7 all talk about not to kill or do wrong doings well ones 41 talk about being good to God. All these rules set a standard for them and if they all followed it would make for a very institutions place.

5.The rule tells us about the social and econmic structure of the time by saying rules that would not be a round today. They also use a lot of older words and this shows social structure because it talks a lot about being nice to one another and to be happy but not to fall in love with anyone. It also shows econmic structure by saying things like if you do as told you will get what you want.

The jeopardy game

Throughtout the game i got a decent amount wrong but i got a lot more right. The groups or titles that i got the most wrong was technology and governement and i did really well on the religion and social structure groups the most. The questions that i got wrong were mostly the more advanded ones too. The answers that i got wrong the most was the theme system, Bureaucracy of Merit, the caste system, Abbasid administration, and theBhakti movement. Those were somethings i really did not know what they were.

Holiday tradtions

The above shows the Hanukkah table that was shown at holiday traditons. This relates to the work we are doing because it is based off a Jewish religion. It all started way back and has the idea of giving gifts to one another. The holidays are all about giving girfts and just showing peace and this doe not break that tradtion. Hanukkah has its own tradtions too like lighting a candle each night for 8 nights which is considered the 8 nights of Hanukkah. On each of those nights everyone who celebrates recieves a gift and this is very nice. Their tradtions are similiary to that of christmas but different in the way that it is spread out amonngst the eight nights.
