Preliminary Writing Plan
Module 2 Short Responses – Question 1
What
types
of primary and secondary sources will you need to use to support the topic
you are examining in your essay? You don't need the actual sources yet, but you should
have an idea of what they might be (such as an eyewitness account of an event, for
example).
To understand a historical event better, I used primary sources such as newspaper
articles, government records, and letters. Primary sources are materials that have been created
during the time of a historical event and can provide first-hand information about it. In terms
of secondary sources, the types of sources that I would use would be articles, websites,
books, or biographies. Secondary sources, on the other hand, are the ones that were created
after the first ones that made the event.
Module 2 Short Responses – Question 2
What are two or three keywords you could use to look for sources to answer this
question?
I intend to use the keywords African American voting rights, racial discrimination
in voting, as well as the 15th Amendment in my paper.
