History 101 Reflection Questions

I’m studying for my History class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

Select six questions–three from each group. These questions cover the reading material of the assigned chapter/s. You must substantially address each selected question in a minimum of 250-300 words. Substantial means that you use the evidence presented in the chapter reading (do NOT cut and paste) and demonstrate that you have thought through the question and reflect that thought in your response.

Preview the sample responses.

Clearly identify at the top of the response which question you are addressing.

No late work will be accepted. All submissions must include reference citations to be considered for grading purposes.
