World history/WHME103/Announcements1

Dear Student,

Welcome to Session 1 of World History: World War II to the Present. The course website is: http://course.oeru.org/whme103/ and if you haven't bookmarked it already, we recommend you do so.

In Session 1 we begin by examining the causes of World War II. What factors contributed to the rise of totalitarianism and militarism in Nazi Germany and Japan? You can access Session 1 here.

It is also a great idea to share your learning experience by posting comments on WEnotes. You might also like to read the posts of fellow learners, and perhaps help each other as part of our learning community.

Enjoy your learning,

Deborah
