Review Sheet for Second Exam
HIS163 -- Dr. Bruce

Remember to bring a scantron and a #2 pencil to the exam

When studying for this test, it may help if you try to chart out the people and events in chronological order, explaining to yourself why one event led to the next and to the next.  Also, try to answer the six key questions of any event (Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How) to help learn its significance in history.  Some terms or names may not be familiar to you because we did not discuss them in lecture, but they are located in your textbook or in Encyclopedia Americana. You are responsible for the material in Chapters 4-5 in The American Saga.
