- Class Description:
- The 1960s was a decade of hope, fear and incredible change. These years witnessed the rise of race, youth, gender, anti-war, conservative, and radical movements in the wake of a hot Cold War and a series of anticolonial revolutions.

Through the study of the 1960s, students will be introduced to the methods and skills historians have used to write this history. This course also offers students an opportunity to think deeply about the purpose, meaning, significance, and work of history. Students will leave this course with a deeper understanding of a significant moment in U.S. history and a fuller understanding of the exciting and powerful work of history.
- Who Should Take This Class?:
- All are welcome. This course is a requirement for all History majors declaring the major in Fall 2017 or after that term.
- Learning Objectives:
Can identify, define, and solve problems
This course is designed to introduce History majors and non-majors to the methods, skills, and philosophies historians use to identify, define, and answer historical questions. Students will get a deep introduction to primary source analysis, the historiography of the sixties, and the philosophical debates that inform historical work and have reshaped the historical profession in the sixties. This course will help students identify research problems based on their reading of scholarly accounts of the past and historical documents;
identify sources and data that can provide the basis for research; and use a variety of methods (textual, visual, quantitative, spatial, etc.) in the task of refining and researching historical questions.
This outcome will be assessed through short primary source analysis papers, assignments that gauge the student's ability to identify and define the nature of historiographic debate, and a series of in-class activities that introduce students to a range of research methods and practices.- Textbooks:
