But this injures students educationally as well. While the rest of the world references Vietnam in many of today’s situations or debates on whether Iraq is the next Vietnam and other issues, high school students are left out of the loop because their high school textbooks and teachers refuse to teach them what they should learn, what they ought to learn.

This is a take-home essay not a research paper. Essays are to be based on reading and lectures assigned in class. Your essay will be graded on its coherence, persuasiveness, logical consistency, and the specific historical support you marshal to defend your position. When borrowing ideas from the reading, make sure to cite author and page number. There is no need to cite lecture material unless you directly quote something said in class.
You must cite these sources appropriately within your paper using MLA style. We will review this style in class; it is also spelled out in your LB Brief handbook and your Bedford Reader. 5. The essay should be free from distracting errors of grammar, spelling, and punctuation. I will pay particular attention to your use of compound and complex sentences, your use of apostrophes, and your proofreading (i.e., missing words/switched letters).

Your essay should have a concise, well-organized introduction with a strong thesis statement. You need to be able to tell the reader (me!)
