II. Preparations for SELF-TAUGHT Discussion
Since this book works as a historical narrative, we will start by choosing the historical moments we think most critical.  Here are our directions:
  1. Put a title on your chart paper
  2. Describe ONE historical event from Williams's book that you think is particularly critical (include the page number from the book/e-book if possible)
  3. Explain why you have chosen this historical event and its consequence/significance
  4. Please tape your poster to the wall
  5. Please know that what you write will become part of the course slideshow on the Self-Taught page
