Journal One
Your written requirement will be a History Journal which you will submit 3 times during the term (refer to the schedule/calendar for recommended due dates). You can write about whatever you want, but it is best to use the textbook to study with. Your writings, each time you submit them, will consist of 10 separate journal entries (30 by the end of the course).
will consist of a summary, paraphrase, synthesis of material you are reading/studying in this course. You will, of course, be reading your textbook at a minimum, but I encourage you to read collateral historical writings on topics being studied.
must be written in your own words–do not quote verbatim the words of a published author, and will contain the subject matter you are learning–not whether you agree or disagree. Our study involves, first and foremost, learning the nation’s past and doing that requires study of previously published studies.
