For this discussion, address the following:
1) Restate your topic. Describe the two lenses you have chosen for your analysis.
2) What connections can you draw from what you have learned about your topic in relation to two of the lenses?
Homework: Similarities and Differences
Overview: (The chosen topic is Voting Rights)
In this homework, you will evaluate similarities and differences in your topic as analyzed through the two lenses you have selected, and you will describe the view you get when looking at your topic through both lenses together. Finally, you will consider how this type of research process can be beneficial.
For instance, when we look at space exploration through the lenses of history and social science, we notice that both lenses deal with how people react to the topic. A difference might be that a history perspective would look to past events to understand how space exploration has progressed, whereas a social science perspective might concentrate on the current lives of astronauts in space.
