L.I.F.E by Gabriel Key _ Student - ApexFriendshipMS https://padlet.com/gjkey/xwk7vibvyvql en-us 2019-05-14 13:56:37 UTC 2025-05-11 22:58:26 UTC hello@padlet.com Introduction gjkey https://padlet.com/gjkey/xwk7vibvyvql/wish/359905326 Human Rights Means- a right that is believed to belong justifiably to every person.

L.I.F.E means to me:

Living during the Age of Exploration and Colonization, the people were discovering more about the world and were navigating to new places. People began to spread apart and settle in new locations.
Inventing with the Age of Reason and Revolution by having knowledge of life and exploring new ideas of life.

The Age of Reason and Revolution connects to the Formulating of the Gilded Age and World War I because they led to upcoming events and introduced new inventions.
The Gilded Age and World War I leads to Expanding because they lead to innovations of weapons and simple machines.

Excerpt from Mr. Millhoffs notes
"the period 1492-1650, was a time of great demographic, economic, and power-distribution changes between America, Africa, and Europe. During this time, American wealth and European imperialism & economic domination (globalization) were formed"


Topic: The units we studied about Living are about discovering more about the world and navigating to new locations. Living in The Age of Exploration and the Age of Colonization some groups of people had the option to experience  human rights while not giving them to others. Age of Exploration C.1.1 


Reflection: The artifact is about how The Age of Colonization started the  globalized world that we know today. During the Age of Colonization, people took great risks in order to obtain more wealth. My excerpt from Mr. Millhoffs notes highlights several important aspects of how all people wanted was wealth. I looked at Transatlantic Slave Trade Journey from Africa to America picture slides, and conducted research to learn about peoples experiences during this time period. I am proud of the work I did for this assignment because i learned a lot about slavery. Looking back at my work at the end of the year, I think I should have done the amount of work i did differently because in the beginning of the year i did not put enough effort in to school. Now I know


Connection: Human Right #4
No Slavery.  Nobody has any right to make us a slave. We cannot make anyone our slave. 


Slaves were used to reduce the amount of work people do and to increase money flow. They had some human rights like "freedom to move" but were unable to move out of where they worked. Slaves had no "freedom of speech" , "right to family" , "right to life". They were controlled by other people like they were animals.


Application to present day: Most slavery is gone today and these rights are granted to the majority of the world. However, some places still allow slavery and support slavery.

Excerpt from Mr. Millhoffs notes
"important changes of science, their interaction with technology, and how the ideas about the universe provide the foundation of our lives today...how the different groups of people that bordered the Atlantic Ocean (Europe, North America, South America, the Caribbean Islands, and Africa) inspired and affected each other through each of their revolutions. The period of European Enlightenment that we just studied influenced the American Revolution. The American Revolution influenced revolutions in France, Haiti, and Latin America with a goal of liberty"


Topic:  The units we studied about Inventing are about Creating new machines and other items, also to innovate previous ideas in order to improve life. In the Age of Reason Human rights were based off who was higher in the class system. Age of Reason H.2

Reflection: The artifact is about how The  Age of Reason started the  globalized world that we know today. During the  Age of Reason,  people treated each other based on their wealth and knowledge. My excerpt from Mr. Millhoffs notes highlights several important aspects of how people made new land their own. I completed the worksheet "Enlightenment Philosophers: Stand Up to Injustice", and conducted research to learn about inflation during this time period. I am proud of the work I did for this assignment because i learned a lot about inflation.
Looking back at my work at the end of the year, I think I did a good amount of work in this worksheet. Now I know

Connection: Human Right 13. Freedom to Move. We all have the right to go where we want in our own country and to travel as we wish.
People could move where ever they wanted to go to get gold and silver.

Application to present day:
This is still true today in most parts of the world, however some people don't.

Excerpt from Mr. Millhoffs notes
"how steam powered mechanical manufacturing changed the world. In 1750, Asia’s manufacturing production of cotton and silk textiles were 70 percent. Europe’s was 23.2 percent. Once Britain pioneered machine based manufacturing the industrial revolution began. It greatly changed manufacturing production and wealth distribution around the world."



Topic: The units we studied about Formulating are about how the world became more industrial, and more people working to produce. In The Gilded Age life was hard for poor people because they were forced to work for little pay and in bad working conditions.  WWI 7 .H 2.1

Reflection: The artifact is about how The Gilded Age led to the industrialized world we have today. During the Gilded Age,  people treated others based on what their job was.  My excerpt from Mr. Millhoffs notes highlights several important aspects of how new inventions lead to big factories and more goods. I completed the worksheet "Child Labor Notes Graphic Organizer", and conducted research to learn about how children were forced to work for little pay and terrible working conditions. I am proud of the work I did for this assignment because it changed my perspective on Child Labor. Looking back at my work at the end of the year, I think I did a really good job on this assignment.

Connection: Human Right 23. Workers’ Rights. Every grown-up has the right to do a job, to a fair wage for their work, and to join a trade union.
This human right along with many others were denied to not only children but most workers during this time period.

Application to present day: The majority of this problem is gone today however many smaller countries still continue and support this.]]> 2019-05-14 14:00:48 UTC https://padlet.com/gjkey/xwk7vibvyvql/wish/359906136 E - Expanding gjkey https://padlet.com/gjkey/xwk7vibvyvql/wish/359906313 World War II, New Nations, and the Cold War
Excerpt from Mr. Millhoffs notes
"the interwar period that was marked by serious and growing economic imbalances, manifested in political and cultural unrest around the world...the WWII period that for the first time in about a century, political and economic domination began to shift away from Western Europe. This was a change that was met with apprehension, hope, and quite often, fear"




Topic: The units we studied about Expanding are about how many countries fought for power above the others, also how economic domination moved from Western Europe. In World War II,  life was hard for everyone because everyone was running from war. World War II was the biggest and deadliest war in history, involving more than 30 Countries. Many people were killed in this time period. WWII, Cold War

Reflection: The artifact is about how World War II, New Nations, and the Cold War led to the balanced economy we have today. During World War II, New Nations, and the Cold War, people were either fighting or running. My excerpt from Mr. Millhoffs notes highlights several important aspects of how this change was "met with apprehension, hope, and quite often, fear" . I completed the worksheet "Oprah Winfrey Elie Wiesal Interview Questions", and conducted research to learn about what it was like to live during this time period. I am proud of the work I did for this assignment because it showed me how difficult peoples lives were back then. Looking back at my work at the end of the year, I think I could have done more but I could have done more.

Connection: Human Right 24. The Right to Play. We all have the right to rest from work and to relax.
During this period Jewish people were denied the right to play because they were forced into gas chambers and killed. These people had no rights at all.

Application to present day: This problem is no longer a problem today.

"A just community looks like a fair community because to be just is to be fair"

Now at the end of the year, my thinking has slightly changed. Now I believe "JUST" to mean what is morally right and fair.
