Learning Goal: I’m working on a history project and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.
The timeline should be focused on the material that we recently covered and / or just about to cover. In other words, I don’t mind a little bit of spill over, but it should only be a little. (This timeline should cover Ancient civilizations of the Near East and Egypt, the Hebrews, and the Greek City States)
There should be categories of events. The categories could be geographical, such as Germany, France, England, etc. Or, the categories could be conceptual, such as warfare, religion, music, literature, science, etc.
When preparing your time line, think of this:Imagine that you are preparing a “cheat sheet” for your best friend, who is about to take a test in my course. You want to pack this study guide as full of information as you can.
Do not submit a time line that is mostly blank space. Fill it up!
One of the best ways to make a low grade is to include a lot of blank space.
note: dont start timeline with summerians because there is a white gap in this time period.
