EDUE-636 Historical Research: Rationale and Application

This course forces students to use modern technology when investigating primary source documents for evidence of historical dissonance. Students must select an area of civic dissonance to research regarding stated American ideals and evidence of actual American practices. Finding and evaluating patterns in the historical past regarding similar dissonance should shed light on current civic activities found today in the United States. Students will extend their content knowledge of the democratic foundations of American civic society and display extensive critical thinking when drawing reasonable conclusions on a contemporary historical issue. It is expected that an article of these conclusions will be submitted to a reputable journal as a gesture of the students' civic responsibility to contribute to the development of their field.
