  2. Ways of observing history Method 1: From the top down…

  3. POSITIVE/NEGATIVE

  4. Area of Study 1 Crisis and Conflict • What was the world like at the turn of the twentieth century? • What chain of events led to the First World War? • What were the outcomes of this war? • How did these outcomes create conditions that made the Second World War likely/inevitable? • How did these conditions assist the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party in post-war Germany?

  5. AREA OF Study 2 Social Life • How did daily life and social values change during this period? • How did events, like the World Wars, influence these changes? • How did various factors – such as gender, class, age, race, nationality and ethnicity – influence an individual’s life. • How did Hitler and the Nazi Party influence social life in post-WW1 Germany?

  6. Area of study 3 Cultural Expression • How were the world’s creative force – writer’s, artists, musicians, choreographers and filmmakers – influenced by changes including war, industrial development and political movements. • How did mass media influence the ability of governments to control and organisations to revolt? • Focusing on Hitler’s Germany – how were these creative forces censored and manipulated and how did this influence society?

  7. What do you know? • Collect a Lotus diagram and in the boxes provided write (briefly) everything you know (or think you know) about Adolf Hitler, Germany, the Nazis, the two World Wars and other related topics. • Once you have written down as much as you can, form a group of 4 to make a larger lotus diagram on an A3 piece of paper. • As we move through the topic we will re-assess our Lotus diagram to add and re-arrange information to consolidate our understanding.

  9. Why? First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out -- Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out --Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out --Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me -- and there was no one left to speak for me. Martin Niemöller
