For your initial post, organize your revised research questions, current thesis statement, and an outline or checklist of your plan for conducting further research on your topic into a new discussion post. In a few paragraphs, discuss what relevant sources you have identified and the process for accessing those sources.

When responding to your peers, critique their plan and offer suggestions for thinking like a historian. Does their plan suggest that they are thinking about change over time, context, causality, complexity, and contingency?

For your response posts (2), you must do the following: 

•   Reply to at least two different classmates outside of your own initial post thread.
•   In Module One, complete the two response posts by Sunday at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
•   In Modules Two through Eight, complete the two response posts by Sunday at 11:59 p.m. of your local time zone.
•   Demonstrate more depth and thought than simply stating that “I agree” or “You are wrong.” Guidance is provided for you in each discussion prompt.
