Content Requirements
You must address all five of the learning outcomes and the questions listed with those objectives. For each objective, be sure to define key terms and relate those ideas directly to advice for your couple or co-workers. The point here is for you to demonstrate how these ideas can be utilized to help people in their relationships. Try to offer specific advice they can integrate into their lives.
Begin your paper with an introductory paragraph that has a succinct thesis statement and that previews what you plan to cover in your paper. End with a conclusion that reaffirms your thesis and restates your key points.
You must use at least five scholarly sources to help you make your points. At least three of these should be course readings and two should be academic articles you have found yourself by doing research in the Ashford University Library. If you need help doing research, visit the Ashford University Library, which can be accessed through the Library tab in the left-navigation menu, in your online course.
You must also draw on personal experience to offer advice or to illustrate points.

We simply want to see that you can apply what you have learned to some potential “real world” experience.

3: SURVEY OF UNITED STATES HISTORY
Order Description
write the paragraph by each Alphabet guidelines- A, B, C, and D. Please do not make into one essay with all of these letters. Please separate the answer by A,B,C,D requirements. ***************************************************************************
Introduction:
Historians work with two types of sources: primary and secondary. Primary sources are letters, diaries, films, photographs, newspaper articles, and any other artifacts that were produced by people living through the events of a historical period. Historians study and draw on these sources in order to recreate the past for the current generation. These recreations are called secondary sources. Secondary sources are books, articles, and websites that historians and other authors write about the past—A People and a Nation is an example of a secondary source.
The analysis of primary sources is an important part of understanding both the culture of the past and the meaning of current events. Primary sources reveal the different perspectives that groups of people and individuals had on contemporary debates as well as the variety of responses historical actors can have to the same event. By investigating how people responded to their situations in diverse historical contexts, we can learn how individuals felt about events as they unfolded and can appreciate their divergent perspectives. This appreciation builds empathy that assists us as we approach individuals with different perspectives in our workplace and daily lives.
In this assessment, you will work with one of the following four time periods in United States history:
• English Colonization and the Road to Revolution
• The Early Republic and the American Civil War
• Reconstruction and the Age of American Imperialism
• The Making of Modern America
For each of these periods, you will have a pair of two primary sources. For your chosen historical period, you should use your knowledge and analytical skills—in addition to relevant readings from the A People and A Nation text—to provide context for these primary sources and to explain how they relate to one another. In this assessment, you will select one historical period and then analyze the corresponding two primary sources.
Requirements:
A. Write an essay (suggested length of 2–3 pages) on one of the historical periods from the list provided in the introduction, using the corresponding primary sources. In your essay, do the following:
Note: You can refer back to the information and worksheets in the Course of Study for HIST 1010, and the text, A People and A Nation, for additional information about these time periods.
1. Analyze the point of view of primary source A by doing the following:
a. Describe the major characteristics of primary source A (e.g., the author’s background, the main ideas presented, the reasons it was created).
b. Explain how primary source A reflects the major events of the chosen historical period (e.g., social movements, developing ideologies, international conflicts).
2. Analyze the point of view of primary source B by doing the following:
a. Describe the major characteristics of primary source B (e.g., the author’s background, the main ideas presented, the reasons it was created).
b. Explain how primary source B reflects the major events of the chosen historical period (e.g., social movements, developing ideologies, international conflicts).
3. Discuss how the two primary sources relate to each other within their historical context.
Note: This may include major themes of the period or social/political movements that define the era.
B. Provide acknowledgement of source information, using in-text citations and references, for quoted, paraphrased, or summarized content.
1. Include the following information when providing source references:
• author
• date
• title
• location of information (e.g., publisher, journal, or website URL)
Note: No more than a combined total of 30% of a submission can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from outside sources, even if cited correctly.
Note: For definitions of terms commonly used in the rubric, see the Rubric Terms web link included in the Evaluation Procedures section.
