one of the three links and since I did not do so well on the worksheet and we have not covered much of the American Revolution, Im thinking we should use one of the other two links. Either Brittish North America or Colonial Society. She explained if we do not like the choice we picked to answer the questions for the worksheet it is ok to switch the topic to one of the other two.one of the three links and since I did not do so well on the worksheet and we have not covered much of the American Revolution, Im thinking we should use one of the other two links.

Over the course of this class, you will learn how to think critically about primary sources. These assessments (three in all) will help you to complete Student Learning Objective 3:
Evaluate the role of an individual in the development of an historical phenomenon such as an event, turning point, or trend in the American experience through 1876.
Together, these assessments will build on one another, providing stepping stones toward a more thorough and clear analysis of primary sources. The assessments include:
Primary Source Analysis Worksheet (due OCC Week 4, Module 4)
Primary Source Analysis Paper 1 (due OCC Week 6, Module6)
Primary Source Analysis Paper 2 (due OCC Week 13, Module 13)
Due Date: Week 6 Spring 2024HIST 170: Primary Source Analysis Paper I (50 pts of overall course grade) (lowest grade of 2 papers will be dropped)
Submitted to Turn It In via our Canvas website by 11:59 PM on Sunday, Week 6 (late submissions will be docked daily).

Historians turn to primary sources to tell us about life in a certain place and time. For this worksheet, you will identify a textual primary source from Chapters 3 (British North AmericaLinks to an external site.), 4 (Colonial SocietyLinks to an external site.), the assigned primary source reader (YAWP Reader).
Using your chosen source and notes from the primary source analysis worksheet, write an essay (3 to 4 pages) on the author’s relationship to colonial America or Revolutionary America with the following sections:
Section 1: An introduction that: A) describes colonial America or Revolutionary America in the context of Chapters 3 and 4 or 5 (Yawp textbook), noting three central or important components of the time period (colonial America or Revolutionary America); B) introduces the primary source and its author; and C) provides a thesis statement (argument) indicating the way in which your analysis will effectively connect the author/primary source to the time period.
Section 2: A section in which, based on your evaluation of the primary source, you indicate the observer’s understanding of the time period (colonial America or Revolutionary America), supporting your assertions with specific paraphrases/quotes of the text.
Questions to Consider for This Section: how does your author view the time period and its place in American society? Do they focus on a particular topic of the time period? Do they see it as a good thing? A bad thing? A complex thing?
Section 3: A section addressing the author’s view of the time period (colonial America or Revolutionary America) within the larger historical context. Provide three clear and distinct comparisons (commonalities or disconnects) between the author’s particular observation of the time period and the “reality” of the Era that we have examined in class. Provide support from the primary source and course content to clarify why you arrived at each conclusion.
Questions to Consider for This Section: what material from the Colonial America or Revolutionary America lectures/textbook content does your author reassert/support? What content/problems/people from the Era are off your author’s radar?
Section 4: A section discussing what larger course theme[s] are prevalent in your primary source. These themes include but are not limited to: Power [who has it?]; Land and Property; Freedom and Liberty; the Power of Place/Region; Individual v. Community v. Nation; Race; Gender; Class; American “Character;” Rhetoric v. Reality. Strong papers will focus on one or two course themes rather than many. Support your assertion with specific paraphrases/quotes from the text.
Section 5: A conclusion restating the author and source, the three components of the time period (colonial America or Revolutionary America) from section 1 and introducing questions the primary source raised for you [Identifying questions for further investigation].
Additional Information
You should not consult outside sources for this assignment. If you need additional context, turn to the textbook or lecture notes. You MUST cite (in-text citations and work cited) all sources you use, including lecture. The best papers will incorporate and closely analyze quotations.
Follow standard formatting guidelines provided on Canvas. Ensure that you have properly cited throughout your paper (in-text citations) and included a work cited page. You will be expected to cite and format correctly and will lose points if you do not. See our Canvas course page in Week 1’s module for citation support. Note: your paper should not be more than 5 pages.
Your paper must be typed, double-spaced, 12-point Times New Roman (1 margins) and uploaded to TurnItIn (via our Canvas website) by the end of OCC Week 6. Late work will be docked daily.
Your paper will be graded on: 1) the standard requirements (page length, citations, font, etc.), 2) clarity of the content (your ability to follow the above-mentioned sections in a clear and concise manner), and 3) the effectiveness of the analysis/contextualization itself.
