Throughout the semester we will explore different methods of discovery using a range of primary sources. We will address strategies of analysis, argumentation, and critical thinking. We will hone your writing and presentation skills. Workshops are placed throughout the semester, to provide practice in all of these areas. The end product of this course will be an original work of historical scholarship, suitable for presentation at URCAS or a professional history conference.
