The thoughts and the knowledge that everyone had was very enormous and this was what had been shown today. Right from the start, all the students had been separated into different groups of tables, around four to five per table. Mr. Armstrong put up on the screen the main ideas, and each person in the group answered each question.Thoughts were brought up, and many of my classmates, argued sometimes on a point of what they had believed to be the right answer. My group kept arguing, until I had noticed that there had been no "true" answer. Every answer had been correct and was an opinion, that could have matched as the answer to why some events may have occurred and developed into the War of 1812.
Today was the day we learned and discussed in small groups as well as the class of why the War of 1812 had happened and how the Embargo Acts affected the United States as well as if it succeeded for what the people needed or not. In the powerpoint lecture that was told by Mr. Armstrong, we learned why the Congress had passed the Embargo Acts, as well as the Non-Intercourse Act. He later gave out sheets of paper that had showed articles of the battle of Tippecanoe and Tecumseh and his brother. Many people such as Heejae and Soyon participated in the discussions by giving solid answers and thoughts that they had to questions.
The main thought and topic of this class was one question that stumped everyone. It had mainly been if money put into the military should be stayed the same, or decreased. From his information and ideas, as the happening of Britain and France taking control of U.S. ships, countries should not decrease the amount of military power. Mr. Armstrong gave us and interesting question to think upon. It had been "Should South Korea send away United States troops." The majority of the class had said no, but in my mind, I thought, can Korea keep on relying on United States for the help of armies? As I have learned from Mr. Armstrong, I thought critically on the question, and thought, should Korea take the chance of maybe being weak and other countries maybe taking advantage of South Korea? I thought no for a second, but as I kept thinking, could South Korea be more economically stable and become a stronger country, without the military? The confusing questions later ended me to think that this was a too complicated of a situation and question, but I knew that I would be asked later in the future years of what I thought, so I knew I had to keep this in mind.
Today's class was one of the many classes that gave many of the classmates' answers to questions that they had for the test that would be on Friday for 8B class. The events that happened in the War of 1812 and the Britain's actions of impressment had been reviewed in class. Many of the questions had been answered by Mr. Armstrong as well as the students. Today was one of the amazing classes that students would carry out of the class in their minds of "History is once again repeated."
