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. Economic history is the historical lens being applied. There is a focus on economics in the economic lens. A combination of pictures of companies as well as economic systems is used in this work. It can be seen in this particular instance that the Irish immigrants were driving down wages in the country, making it more difficult for Americans to earn the higher salaries that the workers were used to earning. Module 1 Short Responses – Question 2 In the following scenario, which historical lens is being applied? Why do you think so? In 1908 Aram Pothier, an immigrant from Quebec, is elected governor of Rhode Island with strong support from the Québécois community. It is a political lens that is being applied to the historical perspective. Politics studies leaders and governments and how policies affect power, regulation, and legislation. There is also a focus on the relationships between people and how they interact with others in society. Module 1 Short Responses – Question 3 In the following scenario, which historical lens is being applied? Why do you think so? Irish immigrants and first-generation Irish-Americans come to dominate the hierarchy of the American Catholic Church in the late 19th century. In this case, we are applying a historical lens through the religious lens. The religious lens focuses on the ideas, movements, and institutions connected to religion. The passage above talks about how the hierarchy of the Catholic institution is dominated by Irish immigrants and how they are perceived to have a dominant position. Module 1 Short Responses – Question 4 In the following scenario, which historical lens is being applied? Why do you think so? Immigration to the United States comes to be seen as a "rite of passage" for young Québécois women in the early 20th century.
This study is being conducted with the Social Lens as the historical lens. An essential aspect of the social lens is that it shows how the actions and attitudes of a character, as well as the prevailing social trends surrounding their time and place, are affected by the events occurring around them. In the passage above, it seems that the female Québécois place a great deal of importance on immigration into the United States. This is something that they feel is a "rite of passage," a significant milestone in their lives. Module 1 Short Responses – Question 5 If you had to write a paper on the Lincoln assassination, what would you like to know more about? Create three research questions that would be appropriate for a historical analysis essay, keeping in mind the characteristics of a critical research question. The three questions can be related, or they can address different aspects of the topic. When it came to the planning and execution of Lincoln's assassination, how many people were charged, and why were they charged? What is the reason behind the association of Lincoln with "The great man theory"? What was the effect of Lincoln's assassination on the nation as a whole? Module 1 Short Responses – Question 6 If you had to write a paper on Title IX, what would you like to know more about? Create three research questions that would be appropriate for a historical analysis essay, keeping in mind the characteristics of a critical research question. The three questions can be related, or they can address different aspects of the topic. What was the reason behind the creation of Title IX? Is it possible to misuse Title IX for the sake of personal gain? Do many women speak up just because Title IX is no longer effective? (Bill Clinton's sexual assaults took years for women to speak out against them, and even Bill Cosby's shameful sexual assaults took years as well.) Module 1 Short Responses – Question 7 Write a research question that addresses the Irish immigrant experience through the lens of political history. During the early 20th century, what kind of impact did the Irish immigrants have on U.S. society in terms of politics?
Module 1 Short Responses – Question 8 Write a research question that addresses the Irish immigrant experience through the lens of economic history. In what ways did the immigration of Irish people to the United States affect the American workforce? When the Irish immigrants entered the US workforce, what impact did they have on the American workers?
