What is History And How Do You Do It?

First Day of History 1120: September 7, 2016

Before we had to leave the class, we had to write down on a piece of paper as to what we thought history was and how it was done.

My Response:

  • Events and stories of the past that is passed down through documentation or storytelling
  • It is told by people who experienced the life events or by other watching on
  • History is re told

Before this day, I had never taken a history class, except for Social Studies in High School (at this moment it seems like a million years ago).

This was a great experience for me to think about what I knew about history, what I thought history is and how it could be interpreted .
