Students will read an article and view a separate video about imperialism. They will summarize the video and the article on the digital Paired H-Chart template provided to them. The summary of the video and article can be a few sentences each. After summarizing both, students will respond to the essential question in the Evaluate portion of the lesson: “How did imperialism affect Africa”?
This activity has been divided into two pages for ease of access. Students will begin with a video, “European Imperialism in Africa.” After viewing and summarizing, they will progress to the article “Imperialism in Africa” and summarize it as well. They will write both summaries on the Paired H-Chart.
Since students will be submitting their Paired Texts H-Chart to the Evaluate activity, consider adding a due date to the How did Imperialism Affect Africa pages. Learn how to edit a page in Canvas.
