Module 3 Short Responses – Question 1 What types of sources could be used to research the economic impact of the women's movement? What about for its social impact? Develop relevant search terms. Types of sources that could be used to research the economic impacts of the women's movement include newspapers from the time period detailing stocks and research articles comparing the economy in the 1900's to today. Relevant search terms include women's rights AND economy, suffrage AND economy. Types of sources that could be used to research the social impacts of the women's movement could be newspaper clippings of protests and the response of the community to the abolitionists. Perhaps there are articles of protests from the time period. Relevant search terms include suffrage AND men, suffrage AND abolition, Equal Rights Amendment AND protests. Module 3 Short Responses – Question 2 Congress held its final vote to approve the Nineteenth Amendment on June 4, 1919. Was this a necessary or a contributory cause of the success of the woman suffrage movement? This was a necessary cause of the success of the woman suffrage movement. Congress approving the Nineteenth Amendment allowed women the ability to vote and thus opened many doors for the woman suffrage movement. The Nineteenth Amendment was essential for women's rights. Module 3 Short Responses – Question 3 The National American Woman Suffrage Association supported the U.S. decision to enter World War I and publicly encouraged women to support the war effort. Was this a necessary or a contributory cause of the success of the woman suffrage movement? This was a contributory cause of the success of the woman suffrage movement. By supporting the U.S. decision to enter World War I and encouraging women to support the war, the National American Woman Suffrage Movement increased support for women to have rights. While it wasn't necessary, it improved the view towards women. Module 3 Short Responses – Question 4 Look at this website for information about women's suffrage at the Library of Congress: http://www.loc.gov/teachers/classroommaterials/primarysourcesets/womens-

suffrage . Using the A.R.I.A. criteria, answer the following questions: What is the purpose of this website? Is the information on this website easy to locate? Can you use a search box or a navigational menu? How reliable and current is the information presented? Would this website be appropriate to use in a research paper? The purpose of this website is to provide information and documents pertaining to the woman suffrage movement. It is easy to navigate and provides a search bar to type your subject into. The information presented is reliable. Multiple sources are provided for each document as well as the original date that document was published. The information is not current as the website provides information from the past when the suffrage movement was in process. Some of the information may be biased due to the propaganda for the suffrage movement that urged people to support it. The domain is reliable and the functionality of the website is superb and easy to use, although I am unable to locate a 'last updated' date. I believe this website is reliable and appropriate to use in a research paper. Module 3 Short Responses – Question 5 Look at this website about the Paycheck Fairness Act: https://www.aclu.org/equal-pay- equal-work-pass-paycheck-fairness-act . Using the A.R.I.A. criteria, answer the following questions: Who sponsors this website? Is it easy to navigate and find information? Is it modern looking? How current and accurate is the information on the website? Does it promote a specific opinion or point of view? Would this website be appropriate to use in a research paper? The website is owned by the American Civil Liberties Union and upon entering the website, it immediately asked for a donation. This makes me inclined to think that the general population is sponsoring this website and keeping it up and running. I am unable to locate a search bar to easily navigate and find information. It looks as though I would have to scroll through a topic rather than searching with my own terms. The website is very modern looking and looks to be decently organized. While some of the information is current, other information is from over a decade ago. This website does promote a specific point of view and is heavily biased. The domain has low reliability and there aren't any reliable sources in the article and there is not an author that I can find. I don't think this website would be appropriate to use in a research paper due to the lack of sources, bias of information, and low functionality of the website. Module 3 Short Responses – Question 6 Accuracy: Are references provided? Does the reference list include other scholarly sources? Relevancy: Would this article be useful for a paper examining the similarities between

political sentiment in states that granted women the right to vote before the Nineteenth Amendment? Would it be useful in an essay focusing on the National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA), an activist group based in New York that was dedicated to nationwide woman suffrage? Intent: What is the point of this article? Is the author making an argument? Authoritativeness: What are the author's credentials? What about the publication's? References of this article are provided. The reference list does include other scholarly sources such as multiple Ph.D. dissertations. I believe this article would be useful in a paper examining political sentiment in states that granted women the right to vote before the Nineteenth Amendment. The articles itself provides evidence that the political sentiments were not positive for women. It provides a direct example of Californias political sentiments. However, I do not believe that this would be a useful article in a paper examining The National Women Suffrage Association. This article is focused more on the political side of woman suffrage rather than the movement itself. I believe the point of the article is to inform the audience of the struggles that women had in politics. I also think that the author is making an argument by stating that although the state of California gave women rights before the Nineteenth Amendment, they still ran into hardship, and it was ultimately the Nineteenth Amendment that helped women. The author herself does have reliable credentials including being a Professor of Womens Studies at a University. The publication also seems to be reliable as it is a peer-reviewed academic journal. Module 3 Short Responses – Question 7 Building on the keywords you identified in Module Two: Approaches to History, continued, and the research of secondary sources you have done so far, what subjects, events, people, and time period are related to the topic you have chosen for your historical event analysis essay? Identifying these pieces will be useful as you search the primary source databases. Subjects: Subjects related to the time period of my topic include equality for women in the form of equal property rights and equal divorce rates. Women were also expected to have the same rights as recently freed slaves. Other popular subjects during this time period were women in the workplace and women aiding the war effort during the war. Events: Events related to my topic and its time period include the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment as well as the beginning of World War I. The formation of the

National Woman Suffrage Association also occurred. People: People related to the Equal Rights Movement include Alice Paul, who was a leader in the suffrage movement that was politically imprisoned. Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton are also leaders of the womans suffrage movement. Susan B. Anthony was another well known abolitionist. Time Period: The time period of the Equal Rights Movement lasted from the 1920's up until it was ratified in 2020. The peak of the Equal Rights Movement when it was most active is in the 1920's when it began until nearly the 1970's. Module 3 Short Responses – Question 8 1. Who (either a single person or an organization) created this poster? Why did this person or organization write it? 2. Who is the intended audience? What methods does the creator(s) use to target this audience? How might the intended audience have encountered this poster? 1. According to the primary source website, the exact creator of this poster is unknown but can be assumed to be a person part of the National American Woman Suffrage Association. This organization wrote this poster in order to showcase the fact that men were beginning to support woman suffrage. 2. The intended audience is presumably those that do not already support woman suffrage, an audience of which are arguably predominantly men. The creator uses the direct quotations of other men to target the audience. By seeing the words of other men, perhaps more men would be willing to support the suffrage movement. The intended audience may have encountered this poster by walking to their workplace, a location which may already have women entering it. Module 3 Short Responses – Question 9 1. Can you detect any biases in this source? What words does the creator use that might point to his or her biases or assumptions? 2. What biases might you bring to your interpretation of the source? 1. I can detect a bias in this source. The author of the source is advocating for the equal rights of women so the author is biased towards woman. Statements that reveal the bias of the creator include opinion rather than fact, such as the statement, "I personally believe that it

would be for the good of US ALL for woman to be enfranchised". All of these men are stating that it is unfair but they do not offer facts or statistics on why it is unfair. 2. My own biases could alter my interpretation of this source in a few different ways. Firstly, I work as a female in a very male-dominated environment. Secondly, I hate the idea of being a trophy wife that stays at home and does housework. My biases could've altered by viewpoint to make me see a bias against men while it is only women fighting for their rights rather than insulting men.
