part one Research Outline with Resources
Option B: Museum Exhibit Students will create a virtual museum exhibit that explores a specific theme, era, event, or series of interconnected events in the history of Chican@s in the USA. This project will highlight diverse perspectives, narratives, and experiences, showcasing the rich tapestry of cultures, challenges, achievements, and interactions of Chican@ culture. The aim is to foster a deeper understanding of historical complexities, cultural exchanges, and the impact of various forces (social, economic, political, etc.) on the Chican@ community.
Find either a current event issue/topic or a theme or an object related to class content and submit the proposal. Keep in mind it can be something that has not been discussed, which is ok, just make sure the time period fits with our class time period (1800s – present). Wait for instructor approval before continuing with the project. The word count for the Museum Exhibit is 1,000 words in a double-spaced format (4 pages, double-spaced). The final product can be produced on a Google Site, Adobe Spark, Word Press.
See below for some ideas. Remember that it must be relevant to the class and be related to Chican@ culture from 1800s – present.
Art
Climate Change
Deportation
Disease
Discriminatory legislation
Drugs
Education
Experience of workers (farm workers, factory workers, or domestic workers)
Gender roles
Family life
Immigration
Labor / Forced Labor
Same-sex relationships
Military
Music
Politics
Sexual assault
War
Now, other topics that have been researched were games, technology, diseases, sports, entertainment, prostitution, clothing, food, etc.
There are several ways to go about this project. It could look at the treatment of LGBT community during the Chicano Movement or Nativist attitudes towards immigrants in early US History, or Grapes in CA and the Farm Workers Union or taco trucks, or murals or graffiti art.
This project can look at a motion picture or tv shows and analyze it by comparing the film to the historical past and how the present influenced the historical narrative. We have access to free videos via the Library. If you are lucky to have access to Disney +, Netflix, HBO Max, or Amazon Prime, then please let me know which movie, tv show, or comedy special you will be analyzing. Have fun. If you are still not inspired, then re-read your Module Reflections for inspiration. No ancient aliens. Unless it’s debunking their pseudo-science.
Write a 2-3 page outline that includes the following information: The main point (argument/thesis), the possible paragraph topics, a full citation for each library and other media resource, and some examples from the library and media sources that will be used in your paper. The Bibliography/Work Cited needs to be included and it does not count in the page length requirement.
1. The main point (Argument/Thesis) is the answer to your research inquiry. For example, This paper will look at ______ issue, which is comparable to events that happened _______. Many times we usually put the main point in the conclusion, which is good too, but providing the reader (me) with the main point in the introduction helps the reader (me) follow the structure of the paper. 2. Use the following links to understand how to create an outline:
https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/general_writing/the_writing_process/developing_an_outline/types_of_outlines.htmlLinks to an external site.
Is your outline going to be perfect? No, it is not. I want to see that you have started the research, that you are structuring the research, that you have the resources to support your argument. But Professor, I hate outlines, I do better writing a rough draft. Yeah, me too, lol. If you write a rough draft, make sure that the main argument is in the introduction and that their is a clear structure of the rough draft in the body paragraphs with examples from the library/articles in the rough draft. 3. For the bibliography, find at least TWO library books (e-books)/journal articles. If using Wikipedia, look at the resources used at the very bottom of the page. We all use Wikipedia and some scholars are actually fact checking the information. Just keep in mind that I am torturing you in looking for research materials from the library. That is part of the Historians Craft. There are some other websites that I have provided that can be used. If in doubt, please let me know and I will check it out but I trust your judgment.
Please contact our Librarian’s for assistance on finding sources for your topic. At Cuyamaca College: cuyamaca.librarians@gcccd.edu At Grossmont College: https://www.grossmont.edu/library/library-instruction.phpLinks to an external site. The bibliography should be in MLA format. History Majors should use Chicago Style (It’s really easy and way better than MLA, lol).
Here are some acceptable websites that you can use for your research:
