Pandemics: From 1918—To The Future

Rubrics:

HOT Logs: Higher Order Thinking Logs. When we evaluate these documents, we are essentially looking for three main ingredients.

• Style: the writer displays his or her ideas in a cogent manner. The writer uses sophisticated words and has organized his/her ideas to create fluency in the document; this fluency allows the reader to follow the development of at least two threads.
• Citation/Textual evidence: the writer exploits a profound passage from our texts, videos, or other materials to create a focus on an intersection of ideas, academic threads, etc. Click here for the history department's powerpoint on plagiarism.
• The writer illuminates a connection; now in addition to the obvious threads of history, science, we have added other threads such as the effects on the cultural fabric of 1918, as well as leadership skills within all areas, including the healthcare and scientific communities.
