Quiz #2: Identifications

You will receive a list of eight people, events, places, or other significant terms. The terms will be drawn from the brief lecture outlines available on this syllabus by clicking on the lecture titles.

Identify and describe five of the items.

Write your answers in paragraphs (i.e., not in bullet points). Be sure that you answer the basic questions of identification: who, what, where, and when.

Also, think of and answer questions involving why and how--something like “why did this happen” or “how did this effect the Arctic?” In other words, why are the people or places or events significant--and why are they significant to the topic of this class?
