As well as the actual set homeworks you'll get here, I will be adding sources or a/b/c questions as we go through each topic, so if you have a spare 20 minutes, pop on and answer some of the questions, taking responsibility for your own success.
Just snoop around the topics and find some questions to have a go at, if they are medicine related then have a go without your notes see how you've remembered or what you need to revise! :-)
Ideally you'll all be having a go and so correcting each other and / or having a full blown argument ABOUT THE TOPIC AT HAND :-)
This is what you make of it!
Enjoy!

Analysis of Hitler’s Rise: The colour films Among other information in this documentary a few points jumped out at me which I believe help to bring sustenance to the story. 24 December 1925 was the date Mussolini took control of Italy, by force, at the head of the Italian National fascist party and successfully dictated for quite a few years. He created the “black shirts”, a gang of thugs in a black uniform which he used to employ fear tactics and to protect his meetings. When in power he used secret police to dispose of his political opponents and put a ban to all labour strikes. The national fascist group over a period of 5 years changed and added laws to suit themselves so that no one could oppose or do anything less than obey them. Now, let’s have a look at Hitler. He started the S.A who wore brown uniforms and were nicknamed the “brown shirts” which he used to employ fear tactics and to secure his meetings. Hitler attempted a putsch like Mussolini to take power by force. Once in power the Gestapo, Hitler’s secret police, killed or imprisoned all opposition in any form. The Enabling act in 1933 allowed the Nazis to make any new laws without the need to consult the rest of the Reich stag. Trade unions were banned resulting in no voice for the workers but also no strikes. Comparing the two it is obvious that Hitler paid a great deal of attention to the work of Mussolini and I believe stole quite a few of his ideas and adapted them for his situation which shows ingenuity. Personally, I have always been partly confused by the Polish Corridor, who knew there was so much uproar about having a coastline? Although, I could see why Germany was angry because in total 10% of their population and 13% of their territory was lost. Finally I would like to mention how clever Hitler was at turning his embarrassing failure of the Munich Putsch into a success. The November martyrs were highly decorated by Hitler by having an annual ceremony in their honour and a grand memorial where people had to salute as they went past. Honouring the dead as he did he inspired many people and also many voters. |
