Historians rely on what other scholars have already researched and written about a chosen topic. These are called\u00a0as secondary sources. A book-length treatment of a topic, also called a monograph, is a type of secondary source. Scholarly articles are also considered secondary in the historical discipline.<\/p>\n

What is meant by \u201chistorical\u201d monograph is\u00a0not\u00a0<\/em>that the book was written\u00a0in<\/em>\u00a0the historical past, but rather that the author is writing\u00a0about<\/em>\u00a0and concerned with a specific set of historical moments and\u00a0processes.<\/p>\n

Students use their knowledge of a specific character or literary work to create a mixtape of songs that they feel reflect the development of the character or the major themes and ideas from the monograph. This assignment is a fun activity that helps students comprehend the text and draw connections to their personal tastes in music and prior experiences which help to create meaning within the text.<\/em><\/p>\n

Did you ever make a mixtape (or a digital playlist, if you\u2019re young enough)? The greatest mixtapes weren\u2019t those that just included a scattered array of tunes or repeated the same radio hits. They were the ones that challenged the listener with something new \u2014 a surprising artist, or an unexpected cover of a favorite song. The mixtape\u2019s ultimate purpose was to deliver a message: declaring love, telling a story, or capturing a time and place. Like any great mixtape, curation is intentional and purposeful. The items chosen are thoughtful representations, and they are selected to communicate an idea.<\/em><\/p>\n
