VOICETHREAD OPTI:
You are the TEACHER.
Consider all that you have learned in the class and how events spark reactions and legislations. Now consider the following and the domino effect of such events.
Create a VoiceThread (a voice-over PowerPoint presentation) that addresses information below and includes your reaction to the ideas presented.
We can only understand our present by studying our past.
TOPIC OPTIONS:
Questions to address in your VoiceThread:
1) Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire and the development of workplace safety standards.
a. Read about the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire on pages 609 – 611 of your textbook.
b. What happened on March 25, 1911? Give details.
c. How many died? Why and how did they die?
d. Who was help responsible? Anyone?
e. Do you think an argument can be made that “progress” was accomplished by exploiting the lower class? Explain.
f. Do you think this still happens today? If so, how? Why?
g. In your own words, define progress -social, economic, and political progress.
h. A "living wage" is a current, hot topic. In your opinion, what is a living wage? What does that look like?
i. How does the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire continue to impact our lives today, every day? How do the legislations, passed after the tragedy, still affect your everyday life?
j. As of January, 2019, the average cost of rent for OKC is $906/month. Rent is generally 1/4 of your monthly take-home pay. So, you would need to make $3,624/month (if paying all bills by yourself) in order to afford the cost of living, i.e. food, clothing, shelter, etc. If you work 40 hours per week, that means you need to make $22.65/hr to meet your basic financial needs. Based on this calculation, do most people make a living wage?
