About Me

Hi girls, I've set up this myspace as a means of communication between eachother and myself. Feel free to leave me comments with questions or conclusions and reflections you make. This is an open LEARNING space so please be considerate of others opinions and ideas.The other day in our double, one of you asked me "What might be considered as the most significant factor or event to have contributed to the outbreak of a world war in 1914?”, in answer to your great question I have formed the hypothesis - "While many factors such as nationalism contributed to the outbreak of World War 1, the most significant factor was the alliance system, which formed numerous agreements and disagreements between European nations."Throughout my time as a student teacher and visitor to your class we are going to work through the alliances in World War One. I will add blog entries in response to the alliances within the assassination of the Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand, Balkan issues, and the untidy web of connections.Please watch the video and try the puzzle - tell me what you think so i can make this space one that you like and learn in.
