1) What do you think the objective
is?
Students will study the growing phenomenon of sectionalism
in the United States prior to the Civil War, and analysis how regional
differences in the North, South, and West escalated political tensions.
2) What level of Bloom’s Taxonomy
is that?
#4: Analysis
3) How will you assess it in 10
minutes or less?
Since analysis involves higher-level thinking, I have to ask
the students higher-level questions. For this sort of objective, I don’t want
to use multiple choice, because I want to them to explain and justify their
answers. As such, short essay questions must be poised:
1. 1. Who were the key figures in sectionalism in the
North, South, and West? What did they want for each region, and why?
2. 2. Discuss
the role of slavery in the South vs. industrialism in the North. How did these
two systems oppose each other? Did any parallels exist?
