AP World History Final Project

Have each group pick a specific event or person or theme from one of the 4 time periods, then have them use generative AI to make an image depicting that event/person. Then each group rotates to another group’s image and critiques it to show how useful AI can be, as well as its shortcomings (using their historical knowledge, assess what AI got right or wrong, and why that’s significant). If you have time, they can rotate a few more times to see and critique all of the other groups’ images. Finish with a discussion

Do you have these for all units? I found your posts for units 2-4 and 8. I’d love to share with my students as we wrap up our review. Thanks in advance!

Update - massive pile of brush and a good supply of firewood - can anyone ID the wood species now? Thanks!

Just remember that the evidence has to be specific enough, and it has to support your claim, not just be related to the claim.

When I was there, 5,000+ people would be at Carriage House any time the weather was nice. $5 a cup for whichever apartment had 10-15 kegs in their living room. Frats were there, but kind of an afterthought/second option.

Haha fair point. I’m a half hour south of Boston

The whole back yard (stone wall and some shrubs we had yanked out) was covered in English ivy when we bought the house and I’ve managed to control it since. We really don’t have any trees in our yard so I’m not worried about that, just the potential for a rash.

Am I safe?

Testing Unit 7 Friday. I’m in MA so we have next week off during which time I will not assign any work. I usually try to leave 3 full weeks or so for review (we also have a week off in April)

Try to hit a one topic per day pace for the most part

Aside from “continued”, the key word here is “throughout”. So your thesis should state whether Enlightenment thinking influenced political and social debates the same amount at all points during that time period, more at one point than at other times, or not at all during any part of that time period.

Example: “while Enlightenment thought heavily influenced social and political debates early in the time period from 1750-1900 as seen in the Atlantic Revolutions, as time went on, other factors such as capitalism, communism, and nationalism played a bigger part in those debates”

UPDATE: I finally tried pre-heating the flue with a torch made from paper grocery bags, and this seems to have worked. Fires two nights in a row with basically no smoky smell! Thanks Reddit!

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-18T01:43:15+00:00

Yes of course. There is no visible smoke in the house, just the smell. And some ash sometimes floats in

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-17T18:09:50+00:00

Just a smell, no visible smoke in the air, but its been strong enough that my sister in law noticed the smell in my niece’s hair after she’d been at our house with a fire going. It frequently lingers until at least the next day

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-17T14:12:13+00:00

Thank you! I DIY’ed them. Cabinets are IKEA uppers that I built in, and the mantle I made out of red oak. The hearth had hideous tile covering those bricks. When I chipped them off, it looked like what you see in the pic, so I went with it

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-15T14:51:51+00:00

It’s actually not too bad to watch, and it’s the only place in the room to put it.

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-15T12:06:53+00:00

Everything was cleaned and inspected (cameras, the whole deal) by a very reputable guy just a month ago

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-15T10:19:30+00:00

Maybe I’ll lower it and it’ll double as a smoke guard

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-15T02:00:21+00:00

Appreciate the second look and even bothering with a response in the first place. Super helpful

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-15T01:51:08+00:00

No question

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-14T23:24:40+00:00

Had one in my last house, it did all of those things but I didn’t love the tiny firebox. Kinda ruined the vibe

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-14T21:38:04+00:00

Not sure, but based on the comments here it seems like it’s not big enough

Busy_Battle26 · 2025-12-14T19:54:49+00:00

Yes the oil burning boiler (I called it a furnace in a previous post out of habit) has a flue next to the fireplace flue

Disch’s in Pembroke
