Choose ONE of the prompts listed in the Module 1 Primary Source Assignments Prompts file (click on the link to see the file) do the necessary reading in Reilly's "Worlds of History" and write an essay in response. Chapter 1 Read the secondary source selections by Hughes, Ehrenberg, and the one by Clay, Paul, & Senecal and write an essay addressing these questions: What contributions made by women to the development of humanity are these writers discussing?

What connection can we see between that ancient rise of patriarchy and the modern situation where scholars such as our authors are having to “rediscover” women’s contributions in the ancient past? Chapter 2 Read the secondary source selection by Reilly (“Cities and Civilization”) and the portion of the primary source The Epic of Gilgamesh and write an essay addressing these questions: How does the Epic of Gilgamesh reflect the changes Reilly is discussing in his selection? How could we see the struggle of Gilgamesh and Enkidu as being a metaphor for civilization?

The focus of this paper is to explore how residential patterns affect intergroup relations. You will use research approaches such as  secondary data analysis to further understand your community. Step 1: Using Secondary Datayou will perform secondary data analysis by visiting the US Census Bureau’s American FactFinder. Identify the various social and economic characteristics (i.e., education, population, housing, race, gender, age, income, etc.) of New Jersey and report the statistics. You can also check government websites for the stat,. Then, using the statistics you report, identify your findings of social stratification or social inequality found in this locale . In other words, what does the data tell you about the social stratification and social inequalities found in your locale. Present your findings in two pages of the paper. Step 2: Using an Observational Study Next, spend 30 to 60 min researching on  New Jersey. choose a central place in New Jersey such as the center of the city of Trenton, a major landmark, or you can drive or walk to different areas and observe for a few minutes. Take notes of what you find, including the types of people you see, the economic conditions, as well as the businesses or other institutions that are present. Based on your research, what can you tell about the economic condition of the majority of people? Is the locale integrated or segregated? In this step, consider the information you have gathered in Step 1 regarding social and economic characteristics, and identify whether it matches what you have recorded from your observation. Be sure to compare the data you gathered from research to what was found in the census data and make note if there are differences. Present your findings in one to two pages of the paper.Step 3: Analysis and Reporting of Research Analyze your data and present your responses in two to three pages in the paper:Describe how segregated the neighborhoods are in your locality. Be sure to consider the various social inequality indicators: race, ethnicity, class, gender, and perhaps sexuality for some areas.Indicate if there are policies, practices, or specific circumstances that have created and maintained these patterns.

Is there an LGBT community? Was it an industrial area that had a strong working class community, or is it a technology area with highly educated citizens? Have there been efforts to desegregate or plans in the futureIndicate which theoretical perspective best presents your analysis of your locality. Describe why you have chosen this theoretical perspective and ensure you include detail on which theorist’s work is most representative.The Research Paper:Must be at least five (5) pages in length (excluding title and reference pages), and formatted according to APA style .Must include a title page with the following:Title of paperStudent’s nameCourse name and numberInstructor’s nameDate submittedMust begin with an introductory paragraph that has a succinct thesis statement.Must address the topic of the paper with critical thought.Must end with a conclusion that reaffirms your thesis.Must use at least three scholarly resourcesMust document all sources in APA style.Must include a separate reference page, formatted according to APA style
