Assignment

For each chapter of OB, you should read the entire chapter and take notes (which you will likely use on the respective assignment, as well as in your Midterm/Final Exam studying and other course work). Once you have finished reading the Chapter, you should look at the "Post-Reading Questions" at the end of the Chapter and CHOOSE ONE of the Post-Reading Questions answer. Alternatively, you can choose the "Journal Option" (Option 3 below). For each question set, you should write a 1-2 page typewritten response, being sure to use information directly from the documents themselves. Each answer should also include at least one direct quotation from at least three of the sources referenced in the question (for a total of at least three quotes). Each question set's answer is worth a possible 2 points. Late Assignments will NOT be accepted.

The questions (you should CHOOSE ONE to answer) for Chapter 3 are:

1. Using Documents 1-5, discuss the changes to Northern life that emerged with growing industrialization, being sure to incorporate specific examples and quotes from the primary source documents.

2. List all of the activism that Northerners were involved in during the antebellum period. Then explain the different factors about the North that made this kind of activism possible.

3. JOURNAL OPTION: Write 1-2 pages of notes on all of the documents you read in this chapter and, at the end, write down 5 questions (i.e. phrases you don't understand, "aha!" moments you had, contemporary things that you are comparing the reading to). Please see the Journal Notes/Questions Guide (under "Files" for more guidance). Notes/Questions should be typewritten and single-spaced.
