part two is a 500-word midterm essay about what United States history is and the things we have found interesting. the instructions and links will be provided below.
PART 1 INSTRUCTIONS:
One of the main jobs of historians is to interpret the past by reviewing primary documents, and scholarly secondary sources, and then creating an analysis of this research. After reading your text and reviewing the assigned materials, submit an analysis of the American homefront during World War Two.
You might want to consider the following questions, but you are not limited to them: How were people on the home front encouraged to participate in the war effort? Which of the posters do you think was most effective? In what ways were people’s part in the war impactful? Where can you still see evidence of these behaviors? You can also focus on the “Double Victory” or women’s role/changes based on their homefront experience.
This assignment should be at least 300 words and contain your reactions or questions about some specific issue within the historical narrative that you find compelling. For full credit, your paper must not simply sum up the reading or repeat points made there. Rather, I’m looking for you to create your own interpretation, explain the emotional content of the piece, or discuss some original insight. Include citations as needed.

PART TWO INSTRUCTIONS:
As we reach the mid point of the semester, I ask you what should we remember about U.S. history? This course covers decades of life in our nation and I often consider what should be remembered. As many of you have heard “Remember the Alamo” in regard to Texas, what should be remembered from this U.S. history course that we have covered in the modules so far? Consider how this connects to today’s climate and events plus your role in the past, present and future. What questions from this course thus far continue to ‘haunt’ your or have you found yourself bringing up with friends or family? What issues, events and perspectives will you continue to consider as you move forward? What else are you hoping to learn about, discuss in a discussion board, and wrestle with as we move through the second half of this course?
As you can see, this assignment could take many forms. You do not need to answer all of the questions above, but instead, they are intended to spark your writing and thinking. Please make sure your assignment is 500 words and cite all sources in APA. Please incorporate at least one primary source and one secondary source into your submission. These sources should be from reputable websites. Be sure your submission has an introduction and conclusion. You can go back and use any resources from the Canvas lessons or do your own research. Please note that Wikipedia, history.com & encyclopedias do not qualify as either primary or secondary sources!!!
