Step 1: Reflect on the question, “How can I use what I have learned about the past to understand the present?” a) Review the content from this course, and draw on any prior knowledge and outside experience. b) If you have not already completed the pre-project activity, read the texts from the Resources section, and respond to the questions in the pre-project activity. Step 2: Organize and conduct a panel discussion about the connection between the past and the present with at least three other members of your learning community. a) Consider inviting others to join the discussion as audience members, or consider capturing the discussion on video and sharing it (with written permission from all participants, of course). b) Use the Does History Repeat Itself? Discussion Guide to focus your discussion. c) Toward the conclusion of the discussion, develop a shared list of three points of agreement and three questions for further investigation. d) After the discussion, complete the Discussion Reflection Questions.
