Human Geo

Today in class you were not there so we had to read the blog and do what it said.  First thing we had to do was reread your blog from yesterday and take notes. The global scale, encompassing the entire worlds, geographers tend to see more broad patterns.  " Think global, act local"  the phrase means that the environment was being harmed by processes such as global warming that were global in scale, but it could be improved by actions such as consuming less gasoline, that were local scale.  globalization scale is an increasingly important concept in geography because of globalization, (which is a force or process that involves the entire world as a result in making something worldwide scope).  Globalization means that that the world is shrinking (meaning the ability of the person).  After the we had to do the second part which was coming up with two different definitions of Globalization.  1st definition is the act of globalizing, or extending to other or all parts of the world.
2nd definition was a worldwide integration and development.
Last thing we had to do was to choose something in our house that we use the most and fid the country of origin.  My team was my computer because I have to use It some much.  It it made by the apple brand.  It was designed in California and assembled in China.  One other thing I choose was my candle in my room.  It said it was made in the USA.

Yesterday in class we didn't do much. We went over one of are old test that we had.  I got a 78% o it so I think I did ok on it.  After that we took the test that we would of took if we would of voted to have a test Friday.  It was that hard but I didn't want to risk having a test and the failing it and my C go down.  After we finished it you gave us the answers so we can review for the exam.  I really want to get my grade up for western civ because it is at a 79.12% and I really want a B so I can get all B's on my report card.

Overseas trade, surged by the crusades led to growth of large-state in norther Italy. Church leaders became more worldly. by having portraits painted or by donating art to the city/ public squares.

Yesterday in class we went over the power point and had someone in the class take notes on the board and we would all copy it.  I found it a lot more interesting then the other power points we have been doing because it talked about how they started to care about art, mathematics, and literature again. And also starting to look back at Rome and Greece and see how they did things.  It talked about a lady that was very Richard care about art and a lot of other things.  She would pay the artist to paint her or paint something she would want and there would put her in the back round.  For examples she asked Leonardo da Vinci t paint the nativity and put her in the back ground. If it wasn't for her we would not ave know a lot of these artist would have even existed.
