Sprint Unit: Cold War America
by Dr. H - March 14th, 2011
Enjoy your spring break!
When you get back, we’ll be doing another quick “sprint unit” on the politics and culture of the Cold War, 1945-1960 (Chapters 27 and 28). If you have time and inclination over the break you would do well to begin reading and studying those chapters.
It will be a busy week because Wednesday 3/23 will be a writing workshop day on the Primary Source Project. Please bring your working draft (outline or complete paper draft or whatever you have) to class that day as a printed paper.
The final version is due on Wednesday, 3/30. I am happy to meet with anyone who would like writing help on the paper; please make use of my office hours or set up an appointment. To give you a checklist as you’re working on this project, the grading rubric looks like this:
