Social Studies Resources Study Guide Page 1 2018 Academic Super Bowl Social Studies Resources Each chapter of The Oxford Illustrated History of the First World War (except Chapter 24) is the source for, at least, six questions. However, Chapter 18: The Entry of the USA into the War and its Effects is the source for 19 questions and Chapter 22: The Peace Settlement is the source for 13 questions. In addition, some other chapters also provide a seventh additional question about the United States. The questions have been divided into two groups: the practice questions” given to coaches and “competition questions” reserved for invitationals and the area and state contests. Chapter 24 was the source for no questions. WORLD WAR ONE CHRONOLOGY Some students may have difficulty understanding introductory military histories and the selective viewpoints of the different authors of the essays in the assigned text may even increase that difficulty. Therefore, students have been provided with a WWI chronology that unifies the different battlefield events described by the various authors. The chronology includes information related to every question about military activities. EPIC HISTORY TV VIDEOS The six WWI videos on the Epic History website will provide students with a short overview of the conflict that includes easy-to-understand pictures, maps, and narratives. Students should review the history of the war by viewing these videos along with studying the World War One Chronology before starting The Oxford Illustrated History of the First World War which is the source for all contest questions. STUDY GUIDE All practice and competition questions relate to the information provided in the following parts of the detailed study guide. Reading Guide The Study Guides outlines the content of the text in a Reading Guide that lists the section headings of each chapter. Some chapters clearly mark introductory and/or concluding sections. Those that are not so clearly marked are noted with italicized words. The Reading Guide also provides various terms, issues, locations, and battles which also relate to specific questions but are not included in the section headings. Significant Individuals. The Study Guide includes a list of persons associated with World War One and featured in questions as well as answers. Those persons who students should be able to identify by portrait are designated with an asterisk. World War One Geography The Study Guide includes a list of locations associated with World War One and featured in questions as well as answers. World War One Vocabulary The list of military and diplomatic words and terms will provide students with definitions that may be necessary in understanding the text. Some of the words and terms may be used in questions. POWER POINT PRESENTATION At their fall clinic, the coaches viewed a Power Point presentation which explained these resources and provided examples of questions and their relationships to them.

Studies that have been conducted to determine how best to make this transformation have not offered a comprehensive methodology or model that has proven useful. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between the practices of military leadership teams and organizational innovation in historic and highly successful military commands, specifically in the World War II Pacific theater of operations, to gain insights into how current and future leadership may influence innovation. The research examined historical documents, leader accounts, and scholarly literature on innovation. Through this case study, insights were gained into how current and future leadership may influence the transformation into innovative organizations through their practices.

    Warfighting Cliff Notes A Synopsis of MCDP 1 Warfighting United States Marine Corps Marine Corps Warfighting Lab Marine Corps Combat Development Command Quantico, Virginia 10 May 1998 1 Warfighting Cliff Notes A Synopsis of MCDP 1 Warfighting Foreword. This publication describes the philosophy which distinguishes the U.S. Marine Corps. This publication provides the authoritative basis for how we fight and how we prepare to fight. While not a reference, this manual is meant to give broad guidance in the form of concepts and values. This doctrine applies to all Marines. I expect all Marines to read this book, understand it, and act upon it. This publication describes a philosophy for action. The concepts in this book dictate our approach to duty, war, and peace. C.C. KRULAK General, U.S. Marine Corps Commandant of the Marine Corps Chapter 1: The Nature of War War Defined. War is a violent clash of interests between or among organized groups characterized by the use of military force. These groups are not always nations, but can be political groups, terrorists, or guerrillas within nations. The essence of war is a violent struggle between two hostile, independent, and irreconcilable wills, each trying to impose itself on the other. The object in war is to impose our will on the enemy. We do this by threatening or using military force. War may range from battles between large military forces to smaller guerrilla clashes. Military force can be used to restore civil peace, or overturn the existing social order. Friction. Countless factors make war difficult to conduct.
