Assignment: Historical Character Development
Background: One way to learn history is to put yourself in another's shoes. In this course, you will develop a historical character and experience American history through the eyes and ears of this character. Your character can be any age, race, gender, or ethnicity you like. Because your character is magical, he or she will move through time and space to the different time periods we will discuss without aging (if only we could do that in real life!). As we progress through the course, you will write about his or her experiences in America and your final project will be based on this character so choose carefully!
• upbringing and relationship to parents and siblings
• strengths and weaknesses
• occupation or favorite ways of passing the time
• likes and dislikes
While these traits are optional, they may help you in subsequent assignments.
Submission: Post your character description using the Assignment 1: Historical Character Development link above. You will receive feedback from your instructor and classmates on making your character stronger. Be sure to give feedback to your classmates on their characters as well.
