Reflections on History project


-What did you learn from working on this project?

I had learnt that a number of things were actually invented from Ancient China and was very surprised to knew that. I learnt how to find information in point form from some of the websites too.

-What can be improved about the way the project was carried out?

We should planned the project earlier on how to do, what were the things that we need to do. Meet up more often to discuss.

Religions and philosophies

-How was religions and philosophies important to the people of the ancient civilisations?

These guide the people in ancient civilisations on how they should behave or live by listening to the god or gods. These will affect one's characteristics.

-In a country like Singapore which is multi-religious, what are the possible challenges we might face? How can we overcome these challenges?

We might face problems like did not respect other religions and therefore ends up with fight or other problems. We should learn other people's religion on what they cannot eat...what things they cannot do and repect them.
-What were the similarities between the government & society of the 3 ancient civilisations?

All of them have a government, writing system , occupations and a class system

-What were the differences between the government & society of the 3 ancient civilisations?

They have some different occupations, and the way they rule the governments are different as some of the empire rule the whole government while some the empire only rule the capital and the rest rule by peopel he trust.

-How similar or different are their systems with Singapore's?

All their goverments were rule by kings while singapore does not. And singapore does not have a class system too while they have.
