19 Feb Write a 3-4-page research paper on a topic of your choice from U.S. History
Your assignment is to write a 3-4-page research paper on a topic of your choice from U.S. History, within the time span we cover in class (prehistoric times up to the end of the Civil War). Papers should contain the following:
· Recognizable formatting (MLA, APA, and Chicago Style are all acceptable; see owl.english.purdue.eduLinks to an external site. for formatting examples!)
· Source citations ( both in-text and in a works cited page!)
· At least 1 primary source (a source written/created during the time period in question; for prehistoric topics, images of artifacts/cave paintings/etc. may be utilized as primary sources!)
· At least 1 secondary source (a source written recently about the topic/time period in question – i.e. a book written in the last 20 years about prehistoric times)
· Submissions must be in one of the following formats: .docx, .doc, .pdf, .rtf (DO NOT SUBMIT .pages DOCUMENTS! )
Other than that, my only other guidance is to be as specific as possible. If you have questions, feel free to reach out to me.
