Overview
Guidelines for writing the podcast paper
1- Introduce the podcast and the featured historian.
2- Give a short summary of the podcast- Subject, points of discussion etc.
3- Put it in context of what you have learned in class and your reaction to it.
4- Give a short critique of the content of the podcast. This means give me YOUR evaluation of the podcast, good or bad. Do not be anachronistic in your assessment of the podcast, but view the events that took place in their own appropriate time period.
5- Remember, what we deem correct today, may have been viewed in a completely different manner then.
So do not use modern standards to comment on what happened a few centuries back.
