1-1 Discussion: Why Should We Study History?
Welcome to your first discussion in HIS
100. This space is meant to be collaborative for conversations about the course
concepts and for learning from your peers' diverse perspectives. To ensure an
interesting discussion, you are encouraged to think creatively about your
initial posts and extend the points made by your peers. It is also important to
review the module resources and read the prompts in their entirety before
participating in the discussion.
Create
one initial post and follow up with at least two response posts.
For
your initial post, address the following:
1. Introduce
yourself to the class.
a. What
degree are you pursuing, and why?
b. Where
do you live?
c. What
else would you like us to know about you?
2. Discuss
the value of studying history for everyone, not
just historians. Why might it be important for individuals and society to know
the history behind current events?
3. Consider
a recent event you have read about or seen in the news. In a few sentences,
describe how knowledge of a past historical event could help you better
understand the current event.
For
your response posts, address the following:
1. Describe
your understanding of your peer's current event by providing additional
historical elements that may have contributed to the current event. Discuss the
similarities and differences between your and your peers' perspectives.
Remember, this assignment is graded on the
quality of your initial post and at least two response posts to your
classmates. If you refer to any module resources, be sure to include an
attribution (or citation) for the resource.
