Unit II
Scholarly Activity
After
reading the lecture and required readings for this unit, use the knowledge you
have learned to write a three page essay on one of the topics below:
-Bacon’s
revolt on Jamestown, Va.;
-The
Pueblo Revolt
-Salem witch trials
In order
to support your discussion, you will need to select at least one outside source
from the CSU Library. Your essay must address, but are not limited to, the
following items listed below:
-Introduce
the event. This may include what happened, the reason, setting, location,
timeline, outcome, and casualties.
-Describe
how characteristics of the region of Colonial America impacted your chosen
conflict.
-Discuss
the American ideals or philosophies that may have caused this event to occur.
How have these ideals and philosophies changed to the way we live today.
-Discuss
your perspective on the event, including, but not limited to, what was
inevitable or avoidable, and what was beneficial or costly.
Again, be
sure to review the required reading about what to look for in a scholarly
resource, and if you have trouble locating an article, contact a librarian to
assist you. Your assignment, which should be three pages total, will not be
accepted if your source(s) are not available in CSU’s Online Library, and the
article you choose must be completely cited and referenced.
