Section 1

CRN 25381

Begin Registration
This course continues the work done in HIST E-597. The course shifts to a workshop model, where presentations are given each week by students as they work toward the production of a substantive scholarly article. The article must incorporate all the elements required by academic peer-reviewed journals. Students make presentations on argument, their theory component, scholarly context, and genres of evidence. In this workshop context, students also engage in review of each other's writing. At the end of course, each student delivers a professional quality article suitable for submission to a scholarly journal in their respective field.
