American Revolution and French Revolution, history homework help

/in /by

Begin your unit project by reviewing your notes. You should focus your review on the American Revolution and the French Revolution.

Then, conduct research on two more revolutions on your own: the Russian Revolution and the Chinese Revolution. As you research, refer back to the initial lesson in this course for reminders about good research habits. Make use of the resources such as graphic organizers. Especially focus on paraphrasing sources and making use of in-text citations. For more information on how to do this, visit:

This project has two parts. First, you will include a chart with four sections. You must include the review you conducted on the American and French Revolutions, including facts and page numbers from your textbook. (Quotes or paraphrased notes are acceptable.) The other two sections will show your research on the Russian and Chinese Revolution. I recommend a chart structure like this:

Revolution

Notes (State the facts here. You may either quote or paraphrase these facts, but clearly label quotes as such with quotation marks.)

Where did I find this? (Include either the page number from your textbook or the URL and paragraph number from the website.)

Now that your review and your research are completed, you can move on to the writing stage of this project. Choose only one of the revolutions we studied (American or French) and one that you researched independently (Russian or Chinese). Write a compare and contrast essay comparing the two revolutions. Choose three points of comparison (three things they have in common or different) for your body paragraphs. (Avoid an essay structure that lists all similarities in one paragraph and all differences in another.)

Your essay should be approximately 500 words long, and include a Works Cited page. This paper must be written in MLA style.

Below are some from the text book.
