Should students have to pass standardized tests (state/national) to graduate from high school?
Tim: Against standardized tests
Jack: For standardized tests
___________________________________________________________
Tim: No, we shouldn’t have to pass standardized tests to graduate from high school. Some kids get stressed out or anxious when taking tests. Even if they had good grades all year and excelled in class, they could still be held back or take summer school because of that one test’s score.
Jack: You bring up an interesting point, but standardized tests can also help schools evaluate progress. The administration of schools and other state/national officials look at patterns within a number of students and see how they can improve the curriculum, or the way they teach certain subjects or modules within those subjects.
Tim: While test scores can help schools improve, bad test scores can affect what colleges students can get into and what people think about them. Test scores do not always reflect how well students understood the curriculum or how smart they are. If a student scored under “satisfactory” on a standardized test, other students would think they were dumb, just because they failed a stressful test.
Jack: While test scores don’t make up a person’s personality, they do help to keep schools accountable for the curriculum they teach, and whether what they teach is up to par with the state’s/nation’s standards. This is to make sure that the students are learning what they need to learn to excel in future classes.
Tim: You say that these test scores are to help schools fix their curriculum, but schools with the best test scores get the most money from the government. It seems disingenuous to use the students' test scores to get money for the school. That money may not even be used to help the students do better in school, and instead be put towards sports teams or updating the administrative buildings, rather than buying supplies for classrooms to help students learn more efficiently.
Jack: You think about how the money is used – but have you considered that they way that teachers grade assignments can be extremely biased or inaccurate? A lot of teachers grade all different kinds of assignments on a curve, which doesn’t represent the individual students’ capabilities or understanding of different topics.
Tim: Some teachers may do that, but not for every assignment. We need to be able to trust out teachers with grading students’ assignments accurately and fairly. And if we can’t trust them to do that, then fire them. That’s a key part of their job.
Jack: We do need to trust our teachers, but we also need to be able to have other data to back up those observations. Standardized tests are the perfect outlet to collect that data.
Tim: Standardized tests can act as other data, but for the most part, it’s inaccurate. These tests benefit the schools more than they benefit the students.
Jack: You say that the schools benefit more, but in reality, it’s the opposite. The students work harder to get better test scores than their peers to boost their confidence, and it sparks a friendly competition.

What innovative techniques were integrated into the Crusades?
Innovative techniques during the Crusades included advanced fortifications and metalworking, which led to homogeneous building methods and Romanesque architecture. The Crusaders' use of armored knights proved advantageous in battles, and the cross-cultural exchange significantly influenced European art, integrating Islamic design elements.
The Crusades (1095-1270) integrated several innovative techniques in their campaigns that significantly impacted the medieval world. Notably, the Crusaders adopted new methods in the building of fortifications and advanced metalworking techniques, resulting in improvements in arms production which were further applied to the enhancement and decoration of buildings. This gave rise to a widely recognizable Romanesque style of architecture despite various regional differences.
Moreover, the Crusades influenced military tactics, such as the use of heavily armored knights against the lighter armed or unarmored mounted archers of Turkish forces, giving Western European forces an advantage. In terms of cultural exchanges, the Crusades facilitated a cross-cultural interplay evident in the art of both the Byzantine Empire and Western Europe, leading to new artistic expressions, such as the Italo-Byzantine style in paintings.
The Crusader Kingdoms also fostered diplomatic relations and trade exchanges, which introduced European art to Islamic influences, as seen in the Arabic calligraphy and design in items like tiraz textiles, which became popular in Europe. Embroidery designs from these textiles significantly influenced the iconography of Christian religious figures during the Renaissance.

The true statements about the Free-Soil Party are that both Whigs and Democrats joined it, it opposed the expansion of slavery into the territories, and Martin Van Buren was its presidential nominee. The party made a political impact in the 1848 election, despite not winning the presidency.
Explanation:The Free-Soil Party was a short-lived political party in the United States active from 1848 to 1854, with its main purpose being the opposition to the expansion of slavery into the western territories. Here are the true statements regarding the party:
Both Whigs and Democrats joined the party: This is true, as disaffected members from both parties who opposed the expansion of slavery came together to form the Free-Soil Party.The party opposed the extension of slavery into the territories: True, the central platform of the Free-Soil Party was to prevent the spread of slavery into any newly acquired territories or states.Martin Van Buren ran as the party’s nominee for president: In the 1848 election, the Free-Soil Party nominated former President Martin Van Buren as its candidate.The rest of the statements are false:
Southerners did not outnumber Northerners in the party; it was primarily a Northern party.While abolitionists found a home in the party, arguing for the rights of free labor over the immorality of slavery, its primary issue was not abolitionism but rather preventing the expansion of slavery into new territories and states.Even though it did not win the presidency, the Free-Soil Party had a notable impact on the election of 1848, particularly in the North, where it contributed to the defeat of other candidates by drawing votes that might have otherwise gone to the Whigs or Democrats.Which of the following represents the belief used to justify westward expansion of America's borders in the 1800s?

Interpret the significance of Napoleon Bonaparte taking the crown from the pope, and crowning himself, as Emperor of France. Please explain your answer using complete sentences. You must answer in complete sentences to earn full credit.
I believe the possible interpretation is: Napoleon demonstrated his power to the Pope and world.
The significance of Napoleon Bonaparte taking the crown from the Pope, and crowning himself as Emperor of France was the demonstration of power. Papal supremacy is the doctrine that had the most significance in the relationship between the church (spiritual) and the temporal (worldly) state – they influenced actions of monarchs and even successions. Taking that into consideration, Napoleon’s act of crowning himself was the demonstration of his power, he proved to the world that no one is above him, not even the Pope.

The correct option is C

The agreements were signed in the Munich building, then called Führerbau, which currently houses the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München (Higher School of Music and Theater in Munich).

Douglass compares America to a river. Why does he think that we will not become a “sad tale of departed glory”?
Answer:
Because he thinks america is different.
Explanation:
sorry for being 3 years late
Douglass compares America to a river to symbolize its potential for continuous progress and his belief in the nation's capacity for achieving higher ideals despite its shortcomings in his era, particularly in regards to slavery and equality.
Douglass compares America to a river, suggesting that its journey towards freedom and progress, despite current turmoils, will not cease. He believes that America will not become a “sad tale of departed glory” because he envisions a future constituted by higher ideals and achievements rather than destruction caused by unjust wars and tyrannical aspirations. This was part of his critique directed at the hypocrisy and contradictions within American society regarding freedom and equality, particularly in the context of slavery. Douglass saw America as a nation of potential and continuous forward progress, symbolized by a river that despite obstructions, keeps flowing towards an expansive, enlightened future.
American society in the 1850s was complex and oftentimes hypocritical, valuing liberty yet depriving enslaved people of their freedom. Douglass, using the river analogy, implies a sense of inevitable and continual progress – unlike the stagnant or declining empires of the past – where improvement and reform were always on the horizon, just as a river flows onwards despite obstacles.
