METHOD OF HISTORICAL INQUIRY THE LOGICAL WAY TO EXAMINE HISTORY

RECALL  Our History is what we choose to remember about the past.  Investigative History is what really happened

INTERPRET  History involves explaining people and events

APPLY  Use what we know about the past to understand the present

ANALYZE  History involves figuring out complicated situations

SYNTHESIZE  History involves making sense out of jumbled facts

EVALUATE  History involves making judgments about people and events

Colorado Shootings, Presidential Election, Romney Nomination, Hunger Games, Music News, Drought, State of Education in America, London Olympics, Concussions  Suppose you are an internet newspaper reporter in the year 2100 (there will be no more paper newspapers in 100 years). Write a one- to two paragraph editorial sharing your opinion on the historical event that happened 100 years ago (in or around the year 2012). Include comments that show how future historians (in your time period) believe the event came about and what they believe the importance of the event is on their time's society.  Suppose you are an internet newspaper reporter in the year 2100 (there will be no more paper newspapers in 100 years).
