Students research the slave trade, they use the information that they have found to create a map to help visualize its history and development. In the second activity, students create a map showing information about different ancient African civilizations.
This lesson does not specifically say what content the students are researching and analyzing to find answers to the questions. Therefore, it is hard to determine if this truly aligns with the common core (what are they reading?). The concept and Google connection could be used in a World History class within a unit on Imperialism.
Good cross-curricular with ICT
