World History 1, Quarter 4, Unit 3 of 3 Cultural Transformations in Europe, 1450–1750 Overview Overall days: 11 (1 day = 50-55 minutes) Purpose In the 16th century, Europe emerged as a center of economic, technological, and scientific advancements, a hotbed of ideas and inventions that contributed much to the building of a dense global network of human interaction. Explanations of these achievements must include the ability of Europeans to draw on the accumulated knowledge of all Afroeurasian civilizations and on the blizzard of new information about humankind and nature that poured into Europe from the Americas, Africa, and Asia. In this unit, students explore major political and cultural developments in Europe. These include the cultural innovations of the Renaissance, the rise of Protestantism as a vision of Christian faith and practice that challenged the Roman Catholic Church, and, finally, the Scientific Revolution, a searching examination of humankind’s place in nature and the cosmos. Content to be learned Processes to be used Analyze principal aspects of Europe’s economic strength in the 16th century. Research why Europe achieved strong economic growth in the 16th century. Distinguish principal ideas, styles, and leading figures of the Renaissance in northern Europe. Analyze the growth and spread of the Protestant Reformation, the ensuing Catholic Reformation, and the causes and consequences of religious conflict in the 16th and early 17th centuries. Draw upon visual, literary, and musical sources to appreciate major elements of northern Europe’s Renaissance. Hypothesize why the Protestant Reformation gained religious and political strength and why religious conflict dominated European affairs in the 16th and early 17th centuries. Compare and contrast different types of governments that existed in Europe in the 16th century. Determine why new ideas about nature and the universe emerged in Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries. Using maps, describe Europe’s major political characteristics in the 16th century. Characterize the Scientific Revolution and its connections to Renaissance humanism, changes in European Christianity, Muslim science, and new global knowledge. Essential questions students should be able to answer by end of unit How did the religious and political makeup of Western Europe change between 1450 and 1750? Providence Public Schools, in collaboration with the Charles A. Dana Center at the University of Texas at Austin In what ways did the Scientific Revolution change humankind’s ideas about the human species, the natural world, and the cosmos?

Dana Center at the University of Texas at Austin Cultural Transformations in Europe, 1450–1750 (11 days) World History 1, Quarter 4, Unit 3 Version 2 To ensure that students will be able to analyze reasons for Europe’s economic growth in the 16th century (2 days): Based on readings in the textbook and class materials, construct a graphic organizer that charts the evidence and reasons for economic growth in 16th-century Europe. To ensure that students will be able to identify the achievements of the Northern European Renaissance in the 16th and early 17th centuries (2 days): Have small groups of students produce decks of flash cards about the Renaissance. Provide images of art and inventions for students to use on one side of their cards. On the other side, the group will research those creations (using the text and any other resources you choose to provide) and supply the following information, which will be written on the other side of the associated card: Name Date (of invention, painting, etc., or date range of the person’s life) Significance of the creation/invention After students have made their cards and quizzed each other on them briefly, have students put the cards away. Display one of the images and call on volunteers to identify the creator and explain the importance and/or impact of these achievements. Take the opportunity to implement writing standard for literacy in history/social studies WHST.9-10.9. To ensure that students will be able to analyze the origins and major religious and political features of the Protestant Reformation and how the Catholic Church responded (3 days): Based on readings in the textbook, have students complete a Venn diagram that compares the different beliefs of the Catholic Church and the Protestant Reformation. This is a good opportunity to implement reading standard for literacy in history/social studies RH.9-10.9.

Dana Center at the University of Texas at Austin D-97 World History 1, Quarter 4, Unit 3 Version 2 Cultural Transformations in Europe, 1450–1750 (11 days) Additional Teaching Strategies Teach strategies and activities in World History for Us All, Big Era 6, Closeup Teaching Unit 6.7.1 (The Protestant Reformation). Have students work in small groups to examine the lives of leading European political figures such as Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, Philip II, James I, Oliver Cromwell, Louis XVI, or Peter the Great. Incorporate pictures and sketches with information regarding the life and accomplishments of the selected leader. Research the trial of Galileo. Assuming the roles of defense and prosecution, conduct a simulated trial presenting evidence of Galileo’s innocence or guilt. Evaluate the arguments presented in the context of 17th century thought and values. Standard 5. Historical Issues-Analysis and Decision-Making. Assessed Curriculum Formative Assessments Provide feedback to students through daily monitoring of student understanding using a variety of methods. For example, use exit cards. Have students answer questions on paper before they leave the class. Keep the activity prompt specific and brief to check for understanding of the day’s concepts. For instance, to check students’ comprehension of Martin Luther’s beliefs, ask students to respond to the following question: “How did Martin Luther try to make the Bible more accessible to ordinary people?” To assess the progress of understanding: how to analyze reasons for Europe’s economic growth in the 16th century, referring to their graphic organizers, have each student write a brief statement from the point of view of a merchant trader trying to convince others to become merchants. how to identify the achievements of the Northern European Renaissance in the 16th and early 17th centuries, ask students to refer to their notes and flash cards as they write a short statement in response to the following question: “What do you think was the most significant achievement of the Northern Renaissance, and why?” Call on volunteers to share their statements. Discuss why a student chose one achievement over one suggested by another student. how to analyze the origins and major religious and political features of the Protestant Reformation and how the Catholic Church responded, have small groups of students create a propaganda handbill listing 5–10 reasons people should join the Protestant Reformation. Then have each student write a statement that counters one of those reasons. Call on volunteers to share their posters and/or their counterstatements. how to analyze the fundamental features of Europe’s political systems in the 16th and 17th centuries, have students use their notes, textbooks, and any other resources you choose to provide as they create a cartoon representing one of the political systems in Europe. how to identify how European ideas about nature and the universe changed between 1450 and 1750, and explain how these ideas challenged traditional views, have students respond in writing to the following question: “How did the new ideas about nature and the universe challenge Europe’s traditional views?” Other Formative Assessments Create a brochure to persuade investors to donate money to your overseas Western European business in the 17th century.
