1.The geographical area that features this week that you can provide could be a map of the world in the 1490s and a modern map of the world. The explanation of why these maps have been chosen would be a short discussion on what the major differences you can see on the maps are and what these differences can tell us about the world becoming more interconnected.
2. The Summary of the main point(s) of the week's topic will be presented in a timeline that chronologically details the different weeks topics of the unit. This detail needs to include a brief description of what each of the weeks topics are and a comment on how these event/concepts led to world becoming more interconnected. Please use your own words to do this.
3. At this stage you will not have the textbook so you won't have to pick a question from the textbook to answer. So the question you need to attempt to answer this week is:
‘One of the most noticeable processes that has taken place over the past 500 years is that globalisation has become increasingly intense. How has the world become more interconnected over the past 500 years?'
You can answer this question at the end of your timelines. Please make your answer is between 150-200 words long.
4. The image or video that you need to provide that sheds additional light on the topic can simply be the image of the timeline.
5. The Identification of a primary source could simply be the image of the map in 1490s that you have chosen with an explanation as to what this source tells us about the extent of globalisation in 1490s.
