Prompt
The text we are studying ends just after the terrorist attacks of 9/11. If you had an opportunity to write the final chapter of the text, how would you write the history? What events would you include and why? Using the year 2010 as a starting point, construct a timeline essay of 6 successive, related events culminating with a current event that you believe has shaped the nation into what it is today. It is important to remember that your events need to have a theme (thesis). Provide an explanation of why each event is significant and how one event is related to or led to another event. Discuss individuals involved with the events and reference your sources. Your ePortfolio should also include a reflection on how these events have shaped your perception about your surroundings and the world in which you live?
Be sure to see the rubric below for grading details.
