=__Assignment 10__= Directions: Whether you think Christopher Columbus is a hero or villain, or guilty or not guilty of crimes against humanity, what is known is that when he landed in the New World in 1492, the world changed forever. Please answer the following reflection questions __on your wiki page__ clearly and with details.  Did your views of Columbus change during our study of Columbus? Why or Why not? Answer 1.Yes they did! I thought like many others that Christopher Columbus was a good man, but when we studied this I found out that was the exact opposite. He murdered lots of natives for no logical reason.  What is the most persuasive argument that supports your current perspective about Columbus? Answer 2. The most persuasive argument I have is the websites on the wiki that are against Columbus they show him in the bad light that he needs to be shown in.  Do you think it's important to learn different perspectives about people who we think are heroes? Why or Why not? Answer 3. Yes. Otherwise we would not know about them fully and would not be able to properly judge if they are a good person or not.  How do you think you will use the idea of perspective as you continue learning history this year and in high school? Answer 4. I am undecided. I do not know if we will be doing many other iconic figures this year but in High school I defiantly think we shall be! I am most defiantly sure that I shall us the ideals of perspective in the future. = = =__Assignment 2__= Now that you are finished with your Native American artifact investigation, I would like you to reflect on this assignment.
