Centuries Projects: Post #1- Theme Prevalence
Research! Research! Research! Isn't it fun? By now you all should be researching the different events, people, and aspects that comprise the century you were assigned. This research might look different for every group, but the idea behind it is the same. You are all selecting certain topics within your century that you feel define why that century was so important in the shaping of the human experience. Keeping this in mind, please answer the following question. (Note: Each person must contribute to this post, which means everyone must comment.)
1. What theme do you feel is the most prevalent during your century? In other words, if you had to choose one theme to represent your century, which would it be? Why?
