Here are a few items that you should make sure you're familiar with and be ready to analyze on tomorrow's assessment (remember to be prepared to go deeper than regurgitation of facts...be able to make connections between the information):
-Factors that led to the entry of the United States into the war.
-The use of propaganda (Committee on Public Information/George Creel)
-The advancement of technology in war. How this technology had jumped ahead of tactics and the ramifications.
-The Versailles Treaty--Why the U.S. Congress never ratified it. Why the U.S. refused to join the League of Nations.
-The fallout of the Espionage and Sedition Act (backed up by Schenck v. United States)
Also...
-Know the major players on both sides
-Know the "dominoes" that fell that led to the war being a worldwide conflict
-The changes that took place domestically for the United States during/after the war.
