History 120: US History Survey

As you know, for your Wikipedia assignment you need to choose a topic that either does not already have a substantial page, or a topic deemed a “stub” article by Wikipedia. You can check out the US History stubs list on Wikipedia, or the general history stubs to find a topic. Remember that I still need to approve your topic before you begin work on it.

Welcome to History 120! In our first class, I’ll go over the syllabus, and go over some of the online services we’ll be using throughout the course. By the next class, you’ll need to send me the following:

1. Your WordPress.com blog address
2. Your Wikipedia user name (not your password, keep that secret)
3. Your Flickr account URL

I’ll go over how to create all of your accounts tonight.
