Unit 4 Lesson 4: the Battle of Britain: a Document Analysis Unit 4 Lesson 4: The Battle of Britain: A Document Analysis The Battle of Britain was a key turning point in the early part of the Second World War. If Britain failed to hold, Nazi Germany would have controlled all of Europe and there would be not have been a safe place for the Allied armies to launch their offensive on Western Europe in 1944. It is because of the importance of this key point in World War II that you will be conducting a document analysis to determine why the British were able to hold back the German aerial attack thus thwarting the planned invasion of Britain. The Question: At the end of the Battle of Britain, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, in one of his famous speeches, declared that, “The gratitude of every home in our island, in our Empire, and indeed throughout the world, except in the abodes of the guilty, goes out to the British airmen who, undaunted by odds, unwearied in their constant challenge and mortal danger, are turning the tide of the World War by their prowess and by their devotion. Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.” The “few” was the name given to the Royal Air Force (RAF) pilots who fought against the German Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain. Using the background information and the following thirteen documents explain whether you believe Churchill’s statement was an accurate analysis of the defeat of Germany during the Battle of Britain. Be sure to indicate where you found the evidence to support your thesis. (Documents 1, 2, 3 etc. – cite as D1, D2, D3, etc.) Try to use as many of the documents as possible. The Response: Write a 1500-word formal essay that answers the above question. Your 1500-word essay needs to use the following format: • Size 12 Times New Roman font • Double spaced • Have numbered pages • First sentence is indented • Be written in formal essay style which means no personal pronouns such as “I” or “me.” • Provided below is a mockup of how I would like you to format the first page of your essay. Imagine the text box is a full sheet of paper Sally Smith CHY 4U Mr. Booker September 19th, 2018 Title of Essay __________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ Please note that the 1500-word count is an approximation. When a word count is given it is often done to provide the student with a sense of how much detail and elaboration they need to provide. In short it prevents students from writing too much or too little. The general rule is that the writer can be under or be over the word count by 10%. I don’t count words and use this to give you a sense of how much explanation you need to provide. Referencing The in-text referencing method that you will be using for this essay is a method that is sometimes encountered on document based exams in university. In these types of exams, documents are included in the exam but instead of using a formal referencing style, like the Chicago-Turabian Style that was used in your first essay of this course, an exam specific method is provided. For this assignment the method of referencing that you are expected to use is as follows: • Each Background Document has been assigned a number. When you cite from these background sources of information you will format your citation as follows (B1). The B stands for Background Documents and the number is which of the Background Documents you are citing. • The other category of information provided is referred to as Documents. When you cite from these documents you will format your citation as follows: (D1). The D stands for Document and the number is which of the Documents you are citing. In both above examples, the citation will be placed at the end of the sentence where the information was being used. Example: August 1940 was the costliest point of the Battle of Britain as one thousand and eleven aircraft were destroyed. (D3) Evaluation (worth 15% of the culminating unit mark) Criteria Mark Format • title page (title/student name/course code/teacher/date submitted) • proper referencing has been used in the essay • typography (neatly typed, 12 pitch Times New Roman/dbl.

Document 1 Adolf Hitler, Directive No. 16 (16th July, 1940) As England, despite her hopeless military situation, still shows no sign of willingness to come to terms, I have decided to prepare, and if necessary to carry out, a landing operation against her. The aim of this operation is to eliminate the English motherland as a base from which war against Germany can be continued and, if necessary, to occupy completely. Adolf Hitler, Directive No. 17 (1st August, 1940) The Luftwaffe will use all the forces at its disposal to destroy the British air force as quickly as possible. August 5th is the first day on which this intensified air war may begin, but the exact date is to be left to the Luftwaffe and will depend on how soon its preparations are complete, and on the weather situation.

  • The Life and Legacy of Adolf Hitler Claudia Clare Junior Division
    The Life and Legacy of Adolf Hitler Claudia Clare Junior Division Historical Paper Paper length 1912 words 1 Adolf Hitler is a man who rose up to be the chancellor of Germany. By using his smart tactics, Hitler persuaded the people of Germany, when all were lost from the hope of having any success from World War I and the great depression. Hitler created a political party called the Nazi party. This party was originally known as the National German Workers Party (Barrett). He created the design for the flags and banners which had an ancient symbol on it called the swastika. Soon enough he became appointed chancellor and then he became known as Führer, a dictatorial leader after Chancellor ​ ​ Hindenburg died. Hitler gave Germany confidence and lifted their spirits up. He gave jobs to the jobless and built up the economy by introducing the Autobahn, Volkswagen and the People Radio (Bartoletti). Unfortunately, he had an insidious plan. His plan was to practically brainwash the people, racially cleans Germany, and start a war which was later known as World War II. He did this because he was power hungry and wanted to rule over the world. Adolf Hitler was one of the most egregious leaders of the 20th century who is best known for his tragic actions during World War II. He began his leadership triumphantly by helping Germany grow economically (Barrett). He was best known for all of his destructive actions during World War II and for all the deaths that this man caused, and the families destroyed. Adolf Hitler was born on August 20, 1889, in Austria.

La maggior parte dei canali televisivi ha creato un sito web in cui gli spettatori possono esprimere le loro opinioni sui programmi passati e fare richiesta di altre nuove trasmissioni. Le reti televisive sono sempre più influenzate dalle rea- zioni del pubblico, e invece della precedente relazione verticale tra il canale televisivo e l’audience, c’è ora un continuo scambio tra i due: dall’audience al canale tv e viceversa. Abbiamo concluso che trattare separatamente la TV e il Web non permette di considerare questo doppio flusso e abbiamo perciò deciso di trattare congiuntamente le trasmissioni televisive e le reazioni ad esse sul Web. A Logroño è stato inoltre deciso di scegliere i primi giorni di maggio 2017
