For the unessay, I ask that you think inventively and creatively about an issue raised in the course and present it in a compelling, thoughtful way. The goal of this assignment is to spur you to think, research, and write (or not write!) about history more creatively beyond the confines of the traditional essay. It should be based on research and use at least <\/span><\/span>3 sources from the library.<\/strong><\/p>\n


<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n

The unessay should <\/span>not<\/strong> <\/span>just be a list of facts about your topic–I want to see your own analysis and interpretation! Don’t just tell me what happened, tell me <\/span>what it meant <\/span><\/em>and <\/span>why it matters<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Formatting<\/h3>\n

Your unessay should consist of two parts:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. A creative project that explores a question or issue from US history before 1877<\/li>\n
  2. A 500-800 word reflection on your project<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    There are no strict length guidelines on the unessay, but whatever you create should have the same level of research and thought as you would put into a traditional research essay. You will be presenting the same in-depth information, but in a creative format<\/p>\n

    <\/strong><\/div>\n
    In addition to your unessay project, you will need to write a <\/span><\/span>500-800 word reflection<\/strong> <\/span>about your unessay and what you have learned.<\/span><\/strong>
