Unit Two Historical Perspectives Assignment
Every historical event has multiple perspectives to consider when forming conclusions about decisions made in the past. This is especially true when the subject matter is debated or controversial.
In this assignment, examine historical events from two diametrically opposed positions and forming a conclusion/opinion as to which case presented the better argument.
In addition, examine a primary source to determine its position and historical value to understanding the event.
This activity will not only provide first-hand experience working with primary materials (the building blocks of history) but will also allow you to appreciate the complexity of the past and perhaps see things from different point of view.
