Final Exam Review Table

For the Final Exam "Salon" review, I compiled in this chart the blogs for each of the units, and some places put links to other blogs.  The other chart I made on my computer has a bit more information, but this is a good summary, I think.

I won't go into detail now about how these all relate, but I do want to make a note about a common link between each unit.  That link is 


P     O     W     E      R!


Each of these various knowledge mediums and forms of knowledge transmission have been used in many ways throughout history based on who (or what) is in charge of its transmission.  Knowledge is, as I have discovered, the most valuable commodity---when we want to have power over another, all we really need to do is control the knowledge reaching to them.

So does that mean I have control over you?
