Hey guys, here's a nifty little wiki I made to help you figure out how to embed your Prezi into your Wiki.
=**Welcome to Priory World History Wikispaces.**=

A wiki is a document that anyone can update if they want to. Like wikipedia, an encyclopedia that anyone can update.

So here's the deal: -you and your partner have to submit answers to the following questions. -you need to create a new wiki for your country, as that is where you will answer the questions. -I can see who updates the wiki, and when. Which means you gotta make sure you get work done to get credit. -You must also create a Prezi. Go to Prezi.com, create a username, and learn how to do it. (I'll help.) -Embed your Prezi into the wiki, like I have embedded the Prezi on colonialism and imperialism into this wiki. -You can put pictures, youtube videos, etc into this, if you want. -You can communicate with your partner in whatever method makes sense (facebook, email, texting, etc) -You can and will need to find information online, not just in the textbook. However, you need to cite. Not citing is akin to plagiarism. -This is an 80 point assignment. 40 points for the answers, 20 points for the Prezi, and 20 points for your personal involvement (compared to your partner) -You have two long classes this S-week to work on this. Wikis are due Monday morning at 8am. Any updates after Monday March 1 will not be accepted and will result in -5 points on your wiki for being late. -You will present your Prezi in class the week that your wikis are due. You will present in your class, your partner will present in his/her class. -In some cases, in territories that have really complex colonizations, there are actually 3 people in a group. So it goes.

=**Questions to answer about your colonized part of the world.**= (some of these are simple answers, others need more detail) 1. Who colonized your territory, and when? 2. Was the colonization violent or peaceful? 3. In one paragraph, describe the life of the indigenous people before the Europeans showed up. 4. What did the European colonizer hope to economically gain in taking this territory? 5. Identify 3 key characters in the process of colonization. At least one should be European, and at least one should be indigenous. 6. How long was your territory a colony? When did it gain independence, and why? 7. In general, do you think that colonization was a good thing for your territory? 8. Find two primary sources that are affiliated with your colonization. One must be European, one must be indigenous. (embed them in your wiki) 9. How do these primary sources help to explain the attitudes of the colonized and the colonizers?
