37 Questions on the Academy-Award nominated short film, "Sunrise over Tiananmen Square," the autobiography of a Chinese art student who grew up a loyal Communist and witnessed the Tiananmen Square Massacre in 1989 -- a shattering event which led him to leave China for a life in North America.
WORKS WELL IN BOTH HISTORY AND ECONOMICS CLASSES
This video is perfect for looking at China in the 2nd half of the 20th century -- it's a primary source that details both the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, and the narrator also covers earlier events such as the Communist Army's Long March with Mao Zedong.
ABOUT THIS SUNRISE OVER TIANANMEN SQUARE QUIZ AND WORKSHEET
Teachers have two resources to choose from in this packet: a set of True/False questions on the video and a separate set of multiple choice questions. Either one can function as a quiz or worksheet, which gives teachers lots of options.
Some teachers may want to have students answer the multiple choice questions during the video and then give them a true/false quiz afterwards. Others may find that it works better to use one of the activities for students who need more guidance, while the other one can serve as a slightly more advanced level.
OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS OF THE FILM:
Shui-Bo Wang's feature documentary is a visual autobiography of an artist who grew up in China during the historic upheavals of the 1960s, '70s and '80s. A rich collage of original artwork and family and archival photographs presents a personal perspective on the turbulent Cultural Revolution and the years that followed. For Shui-Bo Wang and others of his generation, Tiananmen Square was the central symbol of the new China -- a society to be based on equality and cooperation. This animated documentary artfully traces Shui-Bo's roots and his own life journey as he struggles to sort through ideology and arrive at truth.
