Purdue University The 1976 Elections the Democrats Campaign Discussion

I’m working on a History exercise and need support.

Directions:

Students need to choose a historically significant topic from the textbook chapter assigned this week and submit an initial presenting post by Thursday at 11:59pm.

• • Each initial post must be at least 300 words.
  • Each initial post must have a topic sentence typed at the top of the response. This topic sentence should give your classmates the “thesis” of your response, indicating which topic you are writing about and the main idea of your post. This is not a title for your response, and should not repeat the title of the textbook section/document. The words in the topic sentence do not count toward the 300 word total.
  • Each initial post should introduce your topic and discuss your analysis of historical significance.
  • Do not repeat information your peers have already posted on or discussed! Add something new to the conversation.
  • Citations showing where you are gathering your information from are optional. But posts without proper citations will not receive top scores. For a refresher on how to cite sources for this course, please visit the citation page in the Orientation Module.

  • General Rules and Tips for the Textbook Discussions:

    1. Rules for academic integrity and plagiarism apply to all posts.
    2. Remember, the goal of this assignment is historical discussion. Connections to present day are great, but they should not make up the majority of your response.
    3. You may incorporate quotes from the textbook as evidence, but the majority of your posts should be in your own words.
