DIRECTIONS: Answer ONE of the below essay questions in an organized, substantive, well-developed essay.
READ ALL OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO WRITE THE ESSAY!For this essay assignment, you may ONLY use the following:
(1) The Give Me Liberty! textbook.
(2) The American Perspectives e-reader (you will be required to incorporate at least ONE primary source from American Perspectives).
(3) My recorded lectures and your notes on those lectures.
(4) The supplemental podcast episodes that I assigned in the Canvas modules.
You may NOT refer to or use ANY outside sources, including (but not limited to) other books, websites, YouTube videos, and online study/cheating resources such as Course Hero, Chegg, and Quizlet (which I check regularly). Even if properly cited, the use of ANY outside source will result in an automatic point deduction of AT LEAST 10 percentage points (and possibly more, depending on the severity of the offense, with a possible score of ZERO on the assignment). You have more than enough materials to complete this assignment without the assistance of any outside resources.
A successful essay will consist of SIX substantive paragraphs: an introduction, four body paragraphs (each consisting of AT LEAST 10 to 15 sentences), and a conclusion. This is what is expected in each section of the essay:
1. The introduction should be at least four to five sentences and should introduce the topic and set the stage for the essay. This is an argument-driven essay, so most importantly, the introduction MUST include a strong thesis statement (argument) that directly responds to the central question posed by the essay prompt. The thesis statement must be UNDERLINED so I can easily find it.
2. Each body paragraph must address the required key terms listed in the essay prompt. Each numbered set corresponds to a body paragraph (the key terms in the first numbered set should be addressed in the first body paragraph, the key terms in the second numbered set should be addressed in the second body paragraph, and so on). You must address ALL of the listed key terms—there is no choice between the key terms. Your body paragraph must fully define each key term, addressing the following items: WHO or WHAT the key term is, WHEN the event happened (may not be applicable to all key terms), WHERE the event happened (may not be applicable to all key terms), and the HISTORICAL significance of the key term (why is it important?). For each key term, you should include as much detail as you possibly can. You must also tie each key term back to the larger essay prompt and your thesis statement. Each and everybody paragraph MUST make connections to the larger essay prompt in order to reinforce your thesis statement, since this is an argument-driven essay. Do not simply define the key terms as if you are writing short answer key term definitions.

READ ALL OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO WRITE THE ESSAY!For this
essay assignment, you may ONLY use the following:
(1) The Give Me Liberty! textbook.
(2) The American Perspectives e-reader (you will be required
to incorporate at least ONE primary source from American
Perspectives).
(3) My recorded lectures and your notes on those lectures.
(4) The supplemental podcast episodes that I assigned in the
Canvas modules.
You may NOT refer to or use ANY outside sources, including
(but not limited to) other books, websites, YouTube videos, and
online study/cheating resources such as Course Hero, Chegg,
and Quizlet (which I check regularly). Even if properly cited,
the use of ANY outside source will result in an automatic point
deduction of AT LEAST 10 percentage points (and possibly
more, depending on the severity of the offense, with a possible
score of ZERO on the assignment). You have more than enough
materials to complete this assignment without the assistance of
any outside resources.
A successful essay will consist of SIX substantive paragraphs:
an introduction, four body paragraphs (each consisting of AT
LEAST 10 to 15 sentences), and a conclusion. This is what is
expected in each section of the essay:
1. The introduction should be at least four to five sentences and
should introduce the topic and set the stage for the essay. This
is an argument-driven essay, so most importantly, the
introduction MUST include a strong thesis statement (argument)
that directly responds to the central question posed by the essay
prompt. The thesis statement must be UNDERLINED so I can
easily find it.
2. 2. Each body paragraph must address the required key
terms listed in the essay prompt. Each numbered set corresponds
to a body paragraph (the key terms in the first numbered set
should be addressed in the first body paragraph, the key terms
in the second numbered set should be addressed in the second
body paragraph, and so on). You must address ALL of the
listed key terms—there is no choice between the key terms.
Your body paragraph must fully define each key term,
addressing the following items: WHO or WHAT the key term is,
WHEN the event happened (may not be applicable to all key
terms), WHERE the event happened (may not be applicable to
all key terms), and the HISTORICAL significance of the key
term (why is it important?). For each key term, you should
include as much detail as you possibly can. You must also tie
each key term back to the larger essay prompt and your thesis
statement. Each and everybody paragraph MUST make
connections to the larger essay prompt in order to reinforce
your thesis statement, since this is an argument-driven essay.
Do not simply define the key terms as if you are writing short
answer key term definitions.
3. The conclusion should be four to five sentences, and it
should wrap up the essay by restating the thesis statement and
summarizing the evidence reinforcing your argument.
IMPORTANT: While you can use all of the above-listed course
materials to write this essay, you MUST substantively use and
cite at least ONE of the primary sources that I have assigned
this semester from the American Perspectives .The primary
source that you choose must be relevant to the essay prompt and
must be used in at least one of the body paragraphs to reinforce
your thesis statement. You should be thoughtful as to how you
incorporate this primary source—choose one that can help you
prove your thesis statement.

works cited page.

ACADEMIC DISHONESTY: Lastly, do not plagiarize any part
of this essay or engage in any other academic dishonesty (this
includes working together through GroupMe). Your essay will
be run through Turnitin, which will catch most instances of
plagiarism. In addition, I am extremely vigilant about checking
the usual places students go to get information (such as Chegg),
and it is safe to say that you WILL be caught. If you are caught
plagiarizing any part of this essay or engaging in any other form
4. of academic dishonesty, you will receive a ZERO on the
assignment with NO opportunity for a redo. You will also be
reported to the school for academic dishonesty via the Maxient
system, and college-level disciplinary action may follow. There
are NO exceptions to this policy. Plagiarism also includes
“accidental” plagiarism (such as paraphrasing the textbook or
one of my lectures too closely), so be VERY careful if you
paraphrase a source!
