HIST 1111 Dr. Denis Gainty Spring 2014 Test 2 Study Guide 1. Q- What does this test cover? A- WOTW (chapters 4-6) and our e-reserve readings since the last test. 2. Q- What’s the format going to be like? A- Just like last time - a series of linked terms. This means that I’ll give you a list of twenty terms (paired into ten groups of two) and you’ll choose five of those pairs (ten terms total). For each term, you’ll write 2-4 sentences explaining: who, what, when, where, how, why – all the details you can possibly produce. Then, you’ll write the same amount explaining how the terms are linked. BE CREATIVE IN THINKING ABOUT LINKS – AND LOTS OF DETAIL! Each answer will be three sections in all (one for each term, and one explaining how the terms are related) and you’ll produce five of those answers. Each linked pair is worth twenty points, for a total of 100 points for the test. 3. Q- Is there a penalty for guessing? A- No. If you don’t know an answer, you should absolutely guess. Be smart – use what you DO know to fill in what you don’t remember! 4. Q- Do spelling and grammar count? A- Just like last time, the only requirement is that I can read and understand your answer. 5. Q- How much is this test worth? A- Just like last time. You have three tests; each one is worth 15% of your final grade. 6. Q- Do I have to know exactly when people lived or things happened? A- Just as in the last test, I’m much more concerned with the general time line than with specific dates. Don’t get things out of order, but don’t stress if you’re a few years off in one direction or the other. 7. Q- What do I need for the test? A- Remember last time? Same thing. Bring paper. Bring pens or pencils. 8. Q- What if I’m absent on the day of the test? A- Unfortunately, you’ll get a zero on the test; there is no make-up. So please come to class! More notes on your answers: For each term, make sure to answer: who, what, where, when, and why it’s important. For a person: Tell when and where he/she lived, and what he/she did. Talk about at least one important movement or historical theme connected to that person. For an abstract idea, like a concept or a historical movement: Tell when and where this thing happened, and who was involved. Talk about what made it happen and what it affected in history. For a place, nation or empire: Tell when that place/nation/empire existed. Talk about what other groups/nations/places it interacted with, and talk about what those interactions were. BASICALLY: Show me that you know how each term has connections to world history and to the big themes of these chapters. (Do you remember the chapter titles? That might hint at big themes!) Then show me, creatively and interestingly, how those terms relate to one another.Vocabulary/Study Terms 1. Ahura Mazda/Angra Mainyu 2. Aristotle/Plato/Socrates 3. Arjuna/Bhagavad Gita 4. Ashoka 5.
