Primary Source Project, Revised

by Dr. H - March 2nd, 2011

In looking at the schedule I had for the Primary Source Project, and since we had to miss a class on Monday, I am thinking that more time may be needed and so I’m going to stretch it out over the month of March instead of trying to fit it all in before the 2nd exam and the Spring break.

Please note that I revised the guidelines and the schedule of deadlines.

The new schedule is:

Mar 4      Choose your documents and formulate your question (in-class workshop Wed Mar 2)
Mar 7      Begin writing a draft of your paper
Mar 23   Rough draft due in class for self and peer review (in-class workshop Wed 3/23)
Mar 30   Final essay is due in class in hard copy (or uploaded by Digital Dropbox BEFORE class).

I will have a paper version of this assignment in class on Wed 3/2. Please still bring your FTR book, we will work on choosing documents and formulating questions.

Also on Wed 3/2 we will wrap up on the 1920s and discuss the Great Depression: its causes, impact, effects, meaning–leading up to the pivotal election of 1932.
