WRITE MY ESSAYResearch papers—As the name suggests, these assignments require you to engage in full- fledged historical research. You will read sources (primary and/or secondary), think about them, and interpret them to answer some question about the past.
To begin your research, you will have to read before you write.
Shape a question that your research can answer or comment on.
What do your sources have to say about: Women in Northern Renaissance art, or Images of Death in Northern Renaissance art, for example.
Summarize as many points of view as possible.
Draw forth a list of ideas, new data, new perspectives, etc. that you have gleaned from your reading, analysis and synthesis of your sources.
Using word-processing and double-spacing, each paper will cite no fewer than three (3) authoritative sources, and be approximately five (5) to eight (8) pages in length. All sources must be authoritative, and will NOT INCLUDE YOUR TEXTBOOK, Wikipedia, or similar sites. Do not use your textbook as a source. Make sure you narrow your topic to a manageable size. Each student will also prepare a summary of the paper for presentation in class. The summary will be approximately five (5) minutes. Prepare a power point of this summary even if it consists of text only, and put it on a loop to run exactly five (5) minutes. Be prepared to answer questions from the class. Failure to present an oral summary will result in the loss of fifteen (15) points from the grade of the written paper. Papers will be uploaded to Blackboard and graded using an embedded rubric.
Each research paper will be scholarly and address an aspect of Northern Renaissance art or culture.
