Today we went over maps. We also got assigned our last assigned blog on UN Millennium Goals. I was assigned Universal Education. I need to focus on defining and explaining the goal and it's targets, explain why it's a goal, explain the problems the world is having with the issue, and explain how the world has or has not made progress with the goal. This is the link where I can learn about my topic at. The discussion part is due Tuesday so I need to be able to talk about it but he will not be grading til Monday May 13th at the earliest. However I should probably have my blog done by Tuesday just so I'm for sure ready to talk about it.
Semester test questions/topics.
That link is what we'll need to base our semester test blog on. The blog is worth 10% of our semester test grade. We have to keep it brief but have to know it. On the blog we have to cover all of the points. However, for me since I'm doing a video he would give me topics he wants me to talk on and I'd turn it in when he tells me the due date is. I won't be tested on everything but I need to have everything on my assigned blog. For now, just focus on assigned blog.
Monday we're going to watch Hotel Rwanda. Today we are watching the presentation on it.
Rwanda
- Majority Hutus VS Minority Tutsis: Europeans favored Tutsis and were more better at resembling the Europeans so they helped them more and supplied the more. They didn't help the Hutus and the Hutus weren't treated very well.
- All this began due to immigrating Europeans
- Hutus were very violent because they didn't have opportunities like the Tutsis so they tried to fight them as often as possible.
- Anyone who killed a Tutsi would be rewarded by the government. The government would give them land, a home, and money for doing what they were told.
- UN troops withdrew after the murder of 10 soldiers- they wouldn't suffer more death because the UN went to be a peace keeper and try to smooth it out.
- The Hutus finally left because the Tutsis finally fought back and pushed them out. They finally defeated them and are still in power today.
- There were 400 deaths a day for almost 100 days.
