Biography of America – English Settlement (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. • You will be watching several videos this semester. I want you to watch the videos about historical events through the lens of economics and pull out significant events. I want you to be able to explain why these historical and economic events are important. For this video I want you to write in depth about 1 concept in each area and then complete 2 peer reviews. There are many reasons why I want you to do peer reviews. A couple of the most important reasons include: o I want you to see other people’s perspectives on the same video, I want you to engage with your classmates in discussions, o I want you to think about a minimum of 3 historical and 3 economic significant events from each video (this way you don’t have to come up with all of them on your own). Format for the discussion video write-up: ▪ For this write-up you should have a minimum of three well developed paragraphs. ▪ In the first paragraph discuss an important historical aspect and discuss why it is important. Change the color and bold the text of your main idea in red (only a few words). Then change the color and underline the key words that are your supporting arguments – you should have at least 3 reasons why it is significant/important. Make sure to have supporting explanations! ▪ In the second paragraph discuss an important economic aspect and discuss why it is important. Change the color and bold the text of your main idea in green (only a few words). Then change the color and underline the key words that are your supporting arguments – you should have at least 3 reasons why it is significant/important. Make sure to have supporting explanations! ▪ In the third paragraph discuss something that you found interesting and discuss why it is interesting. Change the color and bold the text of your main idea in gold (only a few words). Then change the color and underline the key words that are your supporting arguments. ▪ I want you to explain why each of your highlighted segments are important. Explain them as if you were explaining them to someone who is interested but has a very limited knowledge of the subject. For example, your sixth grade teacher has asked you to come in to her class and explain the importance of each of your highlighted pieces to her class so that they will be able to take a quiz on the material after you leave.
▪ Then please review 2 other students discussion posts. Make sure that your reviews are substantive and specific. Address each of the 3 segments of their posts – highlight the key words in your post that link to theirs. Separate each topic into its own paragraph as you do the peer reviews (i.e. each peer review should be a minimum of 3 paragraphs).
THIS IS HER EXAMPLE OF WHAT SHE IS ASKING FOR Historical and Economic Combined – World War II. The attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on the morning of December 7, 1941 was the trigger for the United States to enter the second world war. The Japanese used an air armada as the fight was taken to the skies. Germans were the first to attack from the air and the British followed shortly after. Air fleets became common and consisted of long-range bombers that would target civilians and pulverized entire cities. The day following the attack Franklin Roosevelt declared war against Japan. Only three days later Hitler in Germany and Mussolini in Italy declared war on the United States. Within a week a small European war between Nazis and Poland expanded into a world war raging against innocent people. In the civil war, union generals Grant and Sherman had carried the fight to the homes and farms of the South, but civilians were rarely fired upon. In world war II, civilians were deliberately attacked. The U.S. was still enduring the effects of the Great Depression and had to rapidly switch to a war time economy. In 1940, America had a third-rate military. Almost overnight the unemployment rate dropped. 17 million new civilian jobs were created while 16 million Americans served in the armed forces, which opened multiple job opportunities for women. On the west coast, industrialist Henry J. Kaiser used women welders and ford’s assembly line techniques to build liberty ships. Women started making the airplanes, bombs, and ships. About 12,000 women served in the Women’s’ Air Force. Over 15 million Americans relocated to have better access to these opportunities. Many moved out west to work in the new war-production jobs and many African Americans moved from the south to the industrial centers in the north. Industrial productivity increased by 96% as American factories were retooled to produce goods to support the war effort. For example, Henry Ford, like many others, retooled their production plants to produce arms. Henry Ford had a new plant outside Detroit equipped with a mile long assembly line. This facility was used to produce B-24 bombers at a rate of 1 plane every 63 minutes. On the west coast, Henry Kaiser instituted Ford’s assembly line philosophies and techniques to build various naval ships. Corporate profits after taxes doubled. By 1945, America was producing more weapons and firearms than the rest of the world put together. There were tremendous advances in technology that resulted from World War II, such as the use of airplanes, tanks, machine guns, and the atomic bomb. Many of these advancements have had far reaching impacts on society well beyond the destruction of war that have benefited society in the long run. The conflict would take more lives and destroy more than land and property around the globe than in previous wars. The tide of the war was eventually swung to the United States favor as over 50 German and Japanese cities were annihilated from the air before the use of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August of 1945. The U.S. had to transition to a war time economy rapidly.
Historical: How World War II was fought was different in many aspects. The fight was taken to the skies. Germans were the first to attack from the air and the British followed shortly after. Air fleets became common and consisted of long-range bombers that would target civilians and pulverized entire cities. The ultimate air weapon was known as the Flying Fortress and was equipped with machines guns. Another change from previous wars that the United States had participated in was that civilians were targeted. In the civil war, union generals Grant and Sherman had carried the fight to the homes and farms of the South, but civilians were rarely fired upon. In world war II, civilians were deliberately attacked. The conflict would take more lives and destroy more than land and property around the globe than in previous wars. Over 50 German and Japanese cities were annihilated from the air before the incredible devastation was caused using the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August of 1945. Among the estimated, 45-60 million people killed were 6 million Jews murdered in Nazi concentration camps as part the Holocaust. And over 400,000 American servicemen lost their lives. There were tremendous advances in technology that resulted from World War II, such as the use of airplanes, tanks, machine guns, and the atomic bomb. Many of these advancements have had far reaching impacts on society well beyond the destruction of war that have benefited society in the long run. Economic: The U.S. rapidly transitioned to a war time economy after struggling to come out of the Great Depression. In 1940, America had a third-rate military. In response to Pearl Harbor being bombed by the Japanese on December 7, 1941 the United States entered World War II. According to Miller, “…but it took almost no time to re-tool the economy for wartime production.” (10:15) What was being produced and who the labor force was changed. Almost overnight the unemployment rate dropped. 17 million new civilian jobs were created while 16 million Americans served in the armed forces, which opened multiple job opportunities for women. On the west coast, industrialist Henry J. Kaiser used women welders and ford’s assembly line techniques to build liberty ships. Women started making the airplanes, bombs, and ships. About 12,000 women served in the Women’s’ Air Force. Americans relocated for work. Over 15 million Americans relocated to have better access to these opportunities.

On the west coast, Henry Kaiser instituted Ford’s assembly line philosophies and techniques to build various naval ships. With all of the above happening corporate profits after taxes doubled. By 1945, America was producing more weapons and firearms than the rest of the world put together.
