• For extra credit of a maximum of 25 points, write a short paragraph in which you explain why you think it is important to study history (check these two links for more information, Historians and Why we study history).
• Suggest an assignment for use somewhere in the course.  Be creative!
• For extra credit of a maximum of 10 points, write a short paragraph in which you explain what you found most interesting about your study of history in HIS 112 (or what you liked most about the course).
  Congratulations on your successful completion of HIS 112!  We hope that you will continue your study of history in one of my other courses such as HIS 111, 135, 241 or 242.
