HIST202WEEK2.docx
This week, you have examined the growing influence of the United States in the world.
1) Drawing evidence from the “America and the world” historical readings for this week, compose an initial post highlighting three major motivations or factors for expanding America's role in the world. There are a number you could choose to focus on. Compose the initial post based on a thesis statement. A thesis is a focused argument based on your reading of the historical documents. It should look something like "American expansion overseas occurred due to X, Y, and Z."
2) Then, for each of the three motivations/factors, use specific details from at least two primary sources each to help explain how they caused American expansion. No outside sources are allowed. You may draw from the lectures and the textbook reading to help provide context, BUT your paper should draw evidence primarily from the historical readings for evidence.
Your initial post (350-400 words) is due by midnight Sunday this week. Make sure to also include a bibliography with your post using the Turabian style guide.

DISCUSSION BOARD REQUIREMENTS You are expected to pull evidence from multiple documents to support your argument. No outside sources are allowed. You may draw from the lectures and the textbook reading to help provide context but your post should draw evidence primarily from the historical readings for evidence. In your post, be sure to:
1. State a clear thesis 2. Use evidence from the historical documents to support your
claims Your initial post of 300-400 words and response of 100 words are due as noted on the syllabus. Each response post should be a critique, pointing out to a fellow student ways he or she could improve, clarify, expand, etc. While we, of course, want to be cordial and fair to one another, college education is a time and place to hone our critical thinking skills and learn to receive constructive criticism. We do want to avoid “ganging up” on anyone in particular. So, if a person already has two critiques, move on to someone else until everyone has two critiques. Some helpful questions to ask when formulating a critique:
• Is the thesis missing something? What? • Does the thesis miss a key piece of evidence? • Is there evidence that should have been used but is not? • Is there better evidence to use than what the student is currently
using? • Is the student’s post ignoring important counter-evidence to his
argument? • Does the essay seem to misunderstand the evidence? • Is there an alternative interpretation of the Scripture passage or
historical document?
