On the first day of class back in September, Tracy asked the class to write down what we thought it meant to do history. I didn’t really understand how I was supposed to answer that. But eventually I thought of something to say. I wrote down that history is the facts of the past, whether it is how society became how it is today or the evolution of humans. And believed that to do history meant a lot if research and work is needed to find all the historic facts. Throughout the semester, after many reading logs, a research project and lectures I have a better understanding on what it means to think historically.
