Red Class Instructions =Mandatory Resources from Mr. Albritton=

1. Gale Articles & Encylopedia Entries: Skim all



2. Notes from Titchner Course on CD. The document is huge 96 pages, but don't freak. I only want you to pay attention to lectures 5 & 6, on pages 28 to 39. Skim these pages. Read deeply what is intersting to you. Pay attention to the "For Greater Understanding: Consider" questions at the end of each section. The questions may help you come up with an interesting thesis. Also, the websites to visit she suggests are good if you need a little more stuff for the particular thesis you choose.



3. Sample History Essay

4. Sample "Paragraph in Color"

=Optional Resources from Mr. Albritton=

2. This overview breaks the war down into smaller chunks, with a nice two to three page explanation of each part. Once you have an idea for a thesis, and are beginning to feel the need for just a little more in-depth explanation, this could be just the place to go.
