Thinking and Problem Solving Skills This assignment was for my History class where we would be shown an image and we had to decipher it in our own way. We had to look at the content, see what was happening in the photo. Research was very important in finding out exactly when this photo came out and what was happening in the world at the time. Once I could find a date it was quite easier to search up what had happened and what each thing in the image meant. - Thinking and Problem Solving was a key skill in this assignment. When you first see the image you just brainstorm what it could mean. Looking at details that you could research further. For example, in this image it clearly says "Zimmerman Note". Then I would go and search up that text. Then I could find all the details about how it was around 1917 and World War I era.
