For this assignment, you must pick a historical topic, within the timeframe of this course, and create at T.V.E.E for the topic you pick.
What is a T.V.E.E you ask?
To create a T.V.E.E. is to apply a certain method for thinking critically about the world around us. T.V.E.E. stands for Topic, Viewpoint, Evidence, and Evaluate. For a specific topic, you are supposed to come up with your viewpoint, list your evidence for your viewpoint, and then
evaluate the significance of the argument.
If you are confused - don't worry! Included are handouts with a sample of what a T.V.E.E is and how to do it.
I really think this assignment is important because students often have a hard time explaining why they have a certain belief or they have a hard time evaluating an author's argument. If you apply the T.V.E.E Method, you will be ahead of the game!
