Module 1 Short Responses – Question 1 In the following scenario, which historical lens is being applied? Why do you think so? The influx of unskilled Irish immigrants into New York City in the 1840s and early 1850s drives down wages for other workers at the low end of the salary ladder. In this scenario, the economic lens is being applied due to it being based on wages and salary. The scenario discusses how immigrants partook in the NYC economy and how their participation in the workforce at low wages contributed to the lost wages for others.

In this scenario, the social lens is being applied as it pertains to social structures and the conditions that prevail in an entire society at a particular point in history.

The three questions can be related, or they can address different aspects of the topic. What role did Title IX play in the women's sports? Who, if anyone, was opposed to Title IX? Why?
