Teaching World War I

HISTORY® and the First World War 100th Anniversary Committee ask the NHD to develop teacher resources connecting teachers and students to provide the best research and resources for the centennial anniversary of the First World War did. HISTORY®, the National Archives and Records Management Bureau, the Congressional Library, the Smithsonian National American History Museum, the National First World War Museum and the Memorial Hall, and the historical organization of the Army, the Navy and the Marine Corps search for interesting and unique primary materials It is. After that, the NHD teacher created a course module that can be edited and adjusted to suit the needs of any class of students.

At the first class meeting, I explained the causes and consequences of World War I, and each student was assigned to the table with the flag of the battle country in the center. I explained during the semester that they would be asked to discuss and defend the behavior of "their country" from the citizen's point of view at that time. Hindsight is not forgiven and they want to put themselves in the position and belief of France, UK, Germany, Austria, Russia, or Turks of a century ago whenever possible.

It is difficult to accurately judge the nicknames of World War I and World War II, or World War I and World War II, but the short answer is "no". Of course, nobody knew during the First World War that the Second World War will follow the First Conflict, so it is not necessary to distinguish it from the original conflict. After the first mention of the "European War", when America entered into conflict in 1917, the American newspaper adopted the "World War". At the same time, on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, Britain prefers "war" until the 1940's - with the obvious exception. Winston Churchill reminds me of World War II in the memoir of "World Crisis" in 1927.

Seeing, Hitler was a corporation of World War I, a war that someone did not like (except for several reasons, Winston Churchill). Hitler persisted in a great country, which prevented Germany from making a big effort to join the world power. Anyway, that is Hitler's view. He saw that Germany was hampered by the joint efforts of Russia, the United States, the UK and especially France. Hitler believed that Napoleon seemed to be a spirit of equality. Both of them are outsiders of the country where they are in power - Hitler and Austrians, and Napoleon are Corsica. They both stood up from obviously humble beginnings and then stood up in a prominent place. They will accomplish this by disseminating ideals from the site and actively using hostile takeovers.
