Your Initial Post is expected to be a 300-word prose essay, with a thesis statement and 2-5 paragraphs supporting and explaining the thesis. Remember to base your response on information and analysis from the readings. Cite the information and analysis you provide. Explain what you learned in your own words, and do your best to synthesize the authors’ analyses into your own original analysis; do not rely exclusively on quotations from the readings to make your points. Please change the title of your post to something unique. Note which question you have chosen to answer.
Remember: outside sources can be used but they should supplement, not replace, the assigned texts. Do not use encyclopedias, Wikipedia, ask.com, about.com, Biography.com, History.com, or other similar sites. (See the assignment specifics in the syllabus on sites not to be used). If using supplemental outside sources, use academic or scholarly sources wherever possible. Support all answers with citations and references.
