The research paper assignment is an opportunity for students to research and write about a theme of their choice in the history of race and ethnicity in Canada to 1900. There are two components to the research paper assignment. Students are required to submit a research proposal and a working annotated bibliography. Your proposal should be 100-200 words (double spaced) and provide a clear description of the theme or focus of your research paper. What do you want to learn about? What questions do you want to answer? The bibliography should list a minimum of the five non-course-based academic secondary sources (books, book chapters, journal articles, etc.) and provide a short description of each title demonstrating how each will contribute to your research. For citations and bibliography, students are required to follow the History Department Style Guide.
