Study Guide For World War II Test

If you are interested in improving your grade, do not ignore this study guide. Complete it before the review so that you can have your questions ready!
1. Compare the roles of Germany and Japan during World War II. Generally speaking, were their aggressions fundamentally similar or fundamentally different?

2. How and why was Germany allowed to annex Austria and the Sudetenland? Was there any justification for Britain and France’s policy of appeasement?

3. Discuss the role that Italy played in World War II. How did the nation become involved in the conflict? How did its participation affect the direction of the war and Germany’s fortunes?

4. Discuss the issues surrounding the United States’ decision to use atomic bombs against Japan. What motives were behind this action, and what arguments have been made against it?

5. Explain how the situation in Europe immediately following the fall of Germany led directly to the Cold War.

World War II Summary Video..

Watch this video.. do you understand what the speaker is talking about? Do you think he is correct. In two paragraphs give me your thoughts on the war? How does the impact of this War still impact lives today? What do you think? If you have no opinion.. you need to do some research.. go back and listen to my lessons.. do something because this means that you are behind.

This is a brief view of Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. Can you tell me who the "Axis Powers" are that they mention in the video? That's something we should know by this point!

MIDTERM PROJECT

These are the guidelines for your midterm project.

Objective:

Create a visual presentation incorporating important dates that you have learned in this class...

Use your technological resources as much as you can.. The sky is the limit. Have fun with it. Make it interesting.. Create something that you would enjoy listening to.

Form a group, name it, and assign one person to email me with the names of each member.

I am here for you, if you need equipment let me know. If you have a question I am only an email, fb message, or tweet away. The only dumb question is an unspoken question. Give me at least 3 daytime hours to respond. DO NOT EXPECT to email me at 12:00 a.m. and have answer by 3:00 a.m. ;) It may happen but it's not likely!
