Why Study History?
- University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) School of Law's page on The Salem Witchcraft Trials of 1692. This is an excellent and comprehensive page for further exploration of the topic.
- Excellent page outlining the basic premise of the American Two-Party System.. It is a bit on the light side, but quite useful for a study reminder.
- Good site for learning or reviewing how to write a five-paragraph essay. This is somewhat archaic for the AP exam, but is highly useful to learn so you can structure your thoughts, write a cohesive arguementive essay, and make me very, very happy all at the same time!
- The Ten Commandments of Good Historical Writing. A bit good natured tongue in cheek, but an excellent outline of how to put together your papers.
- One of the (many) reasons why I do not accept Wikipedia as a reference in any circumstance, and why you should not trust it for anything more than the most casual, entertainment-level browsing: Tell a Lie Enough Times and It Becomes Accepted As Fact, But to Really Lie, You Need a Computer - and Wikipedia.
- Also take a look at the other US History page for additional resources & links.
