World history/WHME101/Announcements8

Dear Student,

Welcome to Session 8 of World History: The Early Modern Period. You can access all course materials for this micro-course on the website at anytime: http://course.oeru.org/whme101/

Congratulations on reaching the final session of the course! In this session we learn about two different kinds of revolutions to the political revolutions we examined in Session 7 - the scientific and industrial revolutions. Over time, these revolutions have profoundly changed the everyday lives of peoples everywhere - the kinds of work we do, our understanding of how the world works, our access to medical treatment and more. Begin Session 8 here.

Now you are almost finished the course, you may like to review your knowledge by completing the review quizzes at the end of each learning pathway. This will help you consolidate your knowledge, and if you are taking this micro-course for credit, it will help you prepare for your assessment.

If you have enjoyed this course, why not continue with the next World History micro-course - World History: Imperialism and War. World History: Imperialism and War continues to build the knowledge you have gained from World History: The Early Modern Period, exploring key events and developments in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Enjoy your learning,
