World War Two final reflection humanities

Over the course of the World War Two project, I have learned valuable skills that will help me throughout the rest of my high school career. One of the things that I learned from this project is about World War Two in general. I had no prior knowledge about the actual events that happened during the war. I learned about many important people that changed the tide in the war, and also read some civilian reports about when armies invaded their villages and cities. One of the craziest things that I learned about World War Two was how selfish, and influential hitler was. Controlling the largest monstrosity, the third reich.

I learned adaptability through the multiple struggles finding the person I wanted to do the
Project on. In the beginning I wanted to do hitler, because the battle of Berlin was when hitler committed suicide. But, after getting some help, I learned that one of the most influential people in the overtaking of Germany was Joseph Stalin. Berlin was the final push to end the war, and he made sure it was done well. Sending his troops to encircle the Berlin, then collapsing on the remaining German army.

Lastly, I learned how to analyze. I had to read many articles on how and what the battle of Berlin  did for the war, and the people of the world. There were many resources which all had very different sides, some being bias. Learning how to take all of the information given, and turning it into valid information was what I learned from this project. For example, I read journals of people in Berlin when it was taken over. They called the soviet soldiers savages. On the other hand, the solver soldiers said the exact same thing about the Germans. This led me to understand what both sides of the war thought about each other, which helped me further understand all aspects of the war. All in all, this project taught us students thoroughly about World War Two, and the influential people that changed the tides of the war.
