Prepare a 3-5 minute presentation, including time for questions and answers. In your presentation, present your significant findings and briefly discuss what led you to pursue your particular topic. Explain why you chose the topic and how you approached it. Tell us what you thought you would accomplish when you started the project and what you have actually accomplished. Tell us what you have learned about through the artifact research project. Make sure you communicate your topic in a way that everyone understands. Remember, you are the only one in the class who conducted extensive research on your topic. Throughout your research, you may have become familiarized with specific terms, concepts, ideas, and persons, but not all of your classmates had that experience. Explain important terms, concepts, ideas, and persons critical to understanding your presentation. Make your presentation an engaging story with a clear introduction, conclusion, and thesis statement. At the end of your presentation, your classmates should be able to summarize the significance of your artifact in understanding U.S. women’s history. Make this a PowerPoint presentation. Incorporate pictures. Do spell checks on your slides, outlines, and any other written materials that you will use.

Write an artifact research paper that is 2-3 pages (or 500 to 750 words) long (not including the title page and reference list). Write in complete sentences. Your answer must exhibit polish (correct spelling and grammar). In your paper, answer the following questions, but do not limit your intellectual pursuits to these questions. 1) Identify your artifact. a) What is your artifact? What is its function? Describe it in detail. b) Present the picture(s) of your artifact with a full citation (title/name, creator if known, approximate date created, the material used, current location, original location, WEB URL if applicable). 2) Explain the historical significance of your artifact and discuss whether it represents a significant change in women’s lives or a reminder of continuity. 3) Add a bibliography, a minimum of five reliable sources using an APA, MLA, or Turabian style. Among 5 sources, you must include at least 3 academic sources. Other sources could be primary sources or from museums, textbooks, and periodicals.

For this assignment, you will need to analyze a primary source from United States History produced within the time frame of the 1700s through the 1870s. Please note that I will not accept any primary source that is not of the United States and/or falls out of the specified time frame. If you decide to change your source, the deadline to resubmit a different source is March 29, 2024 by 11:59 p.m. If you submit a paper that uses a primary source that is not of the United States, has not been submitted to the instructor and/or falls out of the specified time frame, I will evaluate the paper at half credit. Meaning that the maximum points you will be able to obtain are 50/100 points for the assignment. If you are unsure of the time frame of your primary source, it is your responsibility to research the era that it was published, which will also serve to further analyze your primary source.
What are the Requirements?
Your paper has to be written in a standard essay format as discussed above. The cover page of your paper will have an inserted copy of your primary source along with your name, course name/course number and the due date. Your paper will be a 4-6 page analysis of the source (not including the cover page or bibliography). The analysis of your primary source should be your own analysis, with minimal to no help from outside sources. If you are using outside sources for your paper, then you will need to use cite those sources using Chicago Style formatting in a bibliography and footnote citations.
Your paper will need to be typed, have 1-inch margins all around, be double-spaced, be 12-point font and have a Times New Roman font. The front cover of your paper should have a copy of the primary source that you would be analyzing in the paper. This is intended for the reader to reference the primary source as they read through the analysis. Please note that on average students lose about 10-20 points in the paper because they do not pay attention to these requirements.
