Abstract

This Resource Pack explores the global political, economic, and social events preceding the Second World War and also explores significant Canadian consequences from this conflict. These lessons emphasize a student-centered approach, enabling learners to do their own research with primary documents. Students will utilize databases to discover their own primary documents and analyze those documents to engage with history through experiential learning. Students will make insightful inferences based on their findings, write their own interpretations of history, and compare their analyses to their peers and secondary literature. This Resource Pack covers the life of Mackenzie King using his digitized diary, the causes of WWII, the Conscription Crisis, and the internment of Japanese-Canadians
