Module 8 Short Responses – Question 1 Consider the following statement: The support of non-Native Alaskans was an important factor leading to the settlement of Alaska Native land claims . Is this conclusion consistent with the evidence presented in this learning block? Answer Yes or No, and then explain your choice in one or two sentences. The following statement is false as they are still determining whether this is a good topic of discussion. "Still, the law remains controversial, especially among Natives who believe it weakens ties to Native heritage (Thomas, 1985). Almost a half-century after its passage, the jury is still out on whether ANCSA was a "good deal" or a "raw deal" for Natives." Module 8 Short Responses – Question 2 Consider the following statement: ANCSA was a fair settlement for Alaska Natives . Is this conclusion consistent with the evidence presented in this learning block? Answer Yes or No, and then explain your choice in one or two sentences. "In return for letting the federal government "extinguish" their claims to most Alaskan land, Natives received 44 million acres and a cash payment of $962.5 million. The 44 million acres was one-ninth of the total area of the state of Alaska; the monetary settlement represented a direct payment of $462.5 million from the federal government and another $500 million to be paid over time from state oil revenues (ANCSA, 1971)." Even though they are only entitled to a nineth of Alaska the deal is pretty good as they could use the money to build up and expand on their land in Alaska. Module 8 Short Responses – Question 3 Consider the following statement: ANCSA led to economic benefits for white Alaskans as well as for Natives . Is this conclusion consistent with the evidence presented in this learning block? Answer Yes or No, and then explain your choice in one or two sentences. I would disagree with this statement. "All Natives who were alive in 1971 could enroll in one of the corporations, and each received 100 shares of stock in the corporation in which they enrolled. (A 13th corporation was established later, for Natives who were not living in Alaska in 1971)." All of the natives benefited and it doesn't specifically state that the white Alaskans made out better in this scenerio. Module 8 Short Responses – Question 4 For an American Literature course: What skills from this course would you use to
develop a brief essay on the significance of Walt Whitman's "When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd," a poem written in the summer of 1865? I would first come up with a thesis statement that would help me choose a stance on the statement. I would look through lenses and connect that to the poem I am writing about to solidify my thesis statement. Then, I would look for sources that would back up my claims. Module 8 Short Responses – Question 5 For a Sociology course: What skills from this course would you use to produce an annotated bibliography for your course research project? For an annotated bibliography, I would first think of how I would want to write it and where I would be headed with the annotated bibliography. Once that has been established, I would then think of some solid examples throughout the entire bibliography to back up the topic sentences and thesis statement. Module 8 Short Responses – Question 6 For a Business course: What skills from this course would you use to decide between two different investment proposals? When looking at investment proposals, I would look at what is best for my company. I would do some investigative research that involved me making a pros and cons list that I would back up with sources from the internet that would solidify the different proposals. Then I would see what works for me. Module 8 Short Responses – Question 7 How can history serve as a lens for the rest of the academic program you'll pursue at SNHU? Has this course changed the way you think about what you want to study? Why or why not? Please respond to this question in two to three sentences, using proper grammar. History is the baseline for the outcome of most situations. For example, if you think about racism and how segregation was a practice implemented at that time. Segregation and alienation are not needed, as we have learned throughout history that there is no need to fear change. Without proper information, we find ourselves in a position where we would be in fear of the unknown. I use this example to reflect on how a gay person is perceived in time.
