HIS 102
Extra Credit Special Project
Paper Assignment

 
 
 

 
The two little girls pictured here, Eva and Leana Munzer, perished in the Holocaust (Auschwitz, February 1944).  There is some more about their story, from Alfred Munzer, scattered on the website of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC.  Better yet, please visit the museum at least once in your life.

Since all students should enjoy their enrollment in this history course and, at the same time, earn the best possible grade, each student may do one of the HIS 102 Special Projects listed for extra credit.  Each project should be about two pages (maybe longer) in length.  In addition, your project must include complete bibliographic citation at the top left of the page (if necessary) with your name and date.  Note that some projects require the submission of a brochure. 

I will also accept as a special project the My Family and History paper that requires you to examine your family's history in light of the historical events of the past half century.  Point value is 100 points possible extra credit for a two-page paper (less for one page).

The project should be sent to your course instructor following the directions for submitting assignments.

 
Please take a moment to review Charlie's History Writing Center for specific information on the writing requirements for the assignments in the course.
 
A brochure should be sent to the following address:
Extended Learning Institute
ATTN: HIS 102
Northern Virginia Community College
8333 Little River Turnpike
Annandale, VA 22003-3796
 
Finally, since I am still working on the details of this assignment, students may email to me (for extra credit) suggestions for movies, books, museums and activities.

The Optional Extra Credit Special Project is worth a maximum of between 50 and 100 points.
