Description:

3 Semester Hours. This capstone course which must be taken during students' senior year, will provide students with an introduction to the main currents of historical scholarship in the modern era. We will examine various approaches to the past, the ways historical interpreta- tions have changed, and how those changes are related to contemporary concerns. Upon successful completion of this course, students will understand how to formulate a thesis, gather and assess historical evidence, structure a research paper, and orally present the findings of their research. Like all history classes at Athens State University, this one increases students' awareness of our cultural heritage and helps them develop the research abilities for graduate work.
