SPIN

PROPAGANDA

SPREADING OF MISINFORMATION

JACQUES CARTIER

PLANTED A CROSS OF NO CONSEQUENCE
On his second voyage, I think, he planted a cross around Tadousac. When confronted by the aboriginals, he said it was a navigational feature.

When infact he was claiming the territory in the name of the king of France.

WHAT KIND OF SPIN WAS NEEDED ...

  • To convince Hudson's crew to keep searching?
  • for Caboto to receive sponsorship?
  • for Samuel de Champlain to colonize after harshness
  • for Jane Franklin to convince the Admiralty to keep looking

The mindset -
Start webbing your questions.
The Explorers chapter in the textbook is a good place to start.

PROCESS

  • 5Ws
  • Mindmap each question/answer
  • Answers usually result in more questions
  • Your map will resemble a network of vines
  • Each question will have it's own region on your map
