QOD: Why is government an important part of civilization? For this question, I asked that students write at least two sentences. We used this question to refresh a previous class and to demonstrate understanding of a key concept.
We spent the period discussing the importance of art, architecture, infrastructure, and written language. After discussing these concepts, all students should have a similar definition of civilization which is the key to this course. All students should know that a civilization is more complex than a simple society. In order for a society to reach the level of a civilization the following must be present: 1. centralized government, 2. organized religion, 3. job specialization / social classes, 4. art, architecture, and infrastructure, and written language.
In class tomorrow, we will complete an assignment which will help me to determine how well the students understand these key concepts.
