Today we completed our first DocBlock document analysis. I will read and make comments this weekend.  We then walked through a "historical mystery" as an example of what History really is as opposed to the popular assumptions.  We then ended by examining how your textbook account of the first Americans matches (or doesn't match) with current history and discussed some possible reasons.  This weekend, you need to take care of a couple of activities.  First, follow this LINK to complete the student self-evaluation and group-evaluation for your genius guide projects.  Second, check out the images in the gallery below taken from current AP textbooks and compare them to what we learned today about the peopling of the Americas and answer the following questions to be turned in Monday:
  1. Which accounts most closely resemble the account from the American Pageant?
  2. Which accounts most closely resemble the accounts from the current research you read in class?
  3. Which accounts report other explanations of the peopling of America from outside the field of History?
  4. Which account do you think is the most accurate and reliable? Why?
  5. Which account do you think is the most readable and effective? Why?
