Explanation:

This is a worksheet for learning key vocabulary related to the "Emergence of the Global Age". To complete it, we can take "Globalization" as an example:

For the "Definition (CITE YOUR SOURCE)" column:

According to the Merriam - Webster dictionary, globalization is "the development of an increasingly integrated global economy marked especially by free trade, free flow of capital, and the tapping of cheaper foreign labor markets".

For the "I can explain the meaning (in my own words)" column:

Globalization means that the world's economies, cultures, and societies are becoming more connected. Countries and people around the world are more interdependent, with goods, ideas, and people moving more freely across borders.

For the "Connection to me or to history (Evidence of my understanding)" column:

In my daily life, I can buy products from all over the world, like a Japanese - made camera or a French - made perfume. Historically, the Age of Exploration was an early step towards globalization as European explorers connected different parts of the world through trade and colonization.

If we take "Renaissance" as another example:

For the "Definition (CITE YOUR SOURCE)" column:

From the Encyclopedia Britannica, the Renaissance is "a period in European history, covering the span between the 14th and 17th centuries, marking the transition from the Middle Ages to modernity, characterized by a revival of interest in classical learning and values".

For the "I can explain the meaning (in my own words)" column:

The Renaissance was a time in Europe when people started to be more interested in art, science, and the ideas of ancient Greece and Rome. It was a period of great creativity, with many new developments in painting, sculpture, literature, and scientific thinking.

For the "Connection to me or to history (Evidence of my understanding)" column:

The artworks from the Renaissance, like Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa", are still admired and studied today. It also led to a change in how people thought about the world, which eventually contributed to the Scientific Revolution and the development of modern society.

For each vocabulary word, you can follow a similar process: find a reliable source for the definition, rephrase it in your own words to show understanding, and then make a personal or historical connection to demonstrate your grasp of the term.
