**Objective:** Formulate a specific, arguable historical question and outline a comprehensive plan to answer it, selecting a final project medium that best serves your argument and intended audience.

**Instructions:** Your final project for this course will not be strictly limited to a traditional research summary. You will have the opportunity to present your historical research through a medium that aligns with your professional or creative goals.
**The world is your oyster as far as topics go (pick something that interests you), but you need to be able to ask a good historical question/historical questions about it and you need to have access to relevant primary and secondary sources to write about. In fact, try to think of it as a historical problem or question that you want to answer/interpret/solve rather than just a "topic."**

For this assignment, you must submit a topic
**proposal** that outlines your research trajectory. Regardless of the final format you choose, your proposal must address the following four sections:

**1. The Historical Question** State your specific research question clearly. Ensure it is a question that requires an argument and analysis, not just a timeline of facts. Briefly explain how you narrowed this down from a broader topic.

**2. The Significance (The "So What?")** Explain why this question matters. How does answering it help us better understand the historical period, the people involved, or the broader historiographical debate?

**3. Format and Methodology** Declare which medium you will use for your final project and justify
_why_ it is the best vehicle for your specific argument. Choose
**one** of the following:

·
**Traditional Research summary:** A standard 6-8 argumentative academic summary.

·
**Historical Podcast Episode:** A fully scripted and recorded 11-15 minute audio narrative complete with historical framing, primary source integration, and a clear analytical thesis.

·
**Video / Presentation:** A 9-12 minute recorded visual presentation or documentary-style video essay utilizing visual primary sources to construct an argument.

·
**Open Educational Resource (OER) Module / Digital Exhibit:** A curated digital collection of primary sources, paired with analytical introductions, contextual summarys, and non-traditional assessment questions designed to teach your topic to a public or student audience.

**4. Preliminary Bibliography** Provide a correctly formatted (
[Chicago Manual of Style](https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/chicago_manual_17th_edition/cmos_formatting_and_style_guide/chicago_manual_of_style_17th_edition.html)) preliminary bibliography containing at least:

·
**One (1) primary source** you plan to analyze.

·
**One (1)** **secondary source** that provides historical context or scholarly arguments related to your question. Provide a 1-sentence annotation for each secondary source explaining how it helps your project.
