Overview
History is for human self-knowledge . . . the only clue to what
man can do is what man has done. The value of history, then, is
that it teaches us what man has
done and thus what man is.
—R. G. Collingwood
Historical awareness informs various aspects of our lives. We
live in a time of rapid change, and we often think more about
the future than the past. However,
studying history can help us better understand our own lives in
the context of the places we live and society in general. In
America, specifically, the government is
informed by its citizens. If the ideals of society shift, that shift
will eventually move throughout the different levels of
government, effecting widespread change.
For the projects in this course, you will select a historical event
that has impacted American society in some way. You may
select an event that was discussed in
the course, or you may select your own event, with instructor
approval. You may consider using the event you chose to work
on in your Perspectives in History
class, if that event is something you wish to investigate further
through this assessment.
In Project 1, you will develop a plan for an essay on this
historical event. The plan will include a brief description of the
selected historical event and the resources
you will use in your research. In addition, you will identify an
audience for your essay and decide how to communicate your
information to this audience. In
Project 2, you will write an essay analyzing the historical event
you selected, examining its impact on society as well as its
impact on you personally.
Project 1 addresses the following course outcomes:
sources in investigating foundational historic events
fundamental aspects of human history
critical questions related to historical narratives and
perspectives
Prompt
Your writing plan should answer the following prompt: Select a
historical event that has impacted American society. Develop a
plan for writing your essay,
describing the historical event, selecting appropriate resources
for your research, and identifying an audience for your essay.
The purpose of this writing plan is to
provide you with a way to gather your thoughts and begin
thinking about how to support your thesis statement. The
following critical elements will be assessed
in a 1- to 2-page word processing document.
2
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Describe the historical event that you selected. Why is this
event significant?
II. Describe at least two secondary sources that you could use to
research your historical event. Your sources must be relevant to
your event and must be of
an appropriate academic nature. In your description, consider
questions such as: What are the similarities and differences in
the content of your sources?
What makes these sources appropriate and relevant for
investigating your event? What was your thought process when
you were searching for sources?
How did you make choices?
III. Describe at least two primary sources that you could use to
research your historical event. Your sources must be relevant to
your event and must be of
an appropriate academic nature. In your description, consider
questions such as: How do these sources relate to your
secondary sources? What do they
add to your understanding of the event? What makes them
appropriate and relevant for investigating your event?
IV. Based on your review of primary and secondary sources,
develop a research question related to the historical event you
selected. In other words, what
would you like to know more about?
V. Identify an audience that would be interested in your
historical event and research question. For example, who would
benefit most from hearing your
message?
VI. Describe how and why you can tailor your message to your
audience, providing specific examples. For example, will your
audience understand historical
terminology and principles associated with your event, or will
you need to explain these? How will you communicate
effectively with your audience?
