Q In this course, you will complete a series of History Journal entries, which you will submit twice during the term. Refer to the Assignments and Course Schedule on Syllabus Page 2 for due dates. Journal #1 In this first journal activity, you may write about any topic(s) of your choice, but it is best to use the textbook to study. • For this activity, topics should address content covered in Chapters 1 - 8 in the textbook. o It is expected that, at a minimum, you are reading the assigned textbook chapters. o You are encouraged to read collateral historical writings on topics covered in the textbook. This activity will consist of 10 separate journal entries; you will have a total of 20 entries by the end of the course. Each separate entry should: o Be titled as Entry 1, Entry 2, Entry 3, etc. o Contain a minimum of 120 words. o Consist of a summary, paraphrase, and synthesis of material you are reading/studying in this course. o Be written in your own words - do not quote the work of others verbatim. o Discuss the subject matter that you are studying - do not simply agree/disagree. Your study involves, first and foremost, learning the nation's past; doing so requires a review of previously published studies, so you are encouraged to conduct research using outside resources, but be sure to draft your journal entries in your own words. o Direct quotations should not be used; citations are not necessary. o Do not copy/paste information from any source. o No citations
