Hidden History Proposal
Using the provided worksheet under Module 7, write a brief abstract of area(s) you are considering
for your hidden history. You should complete the entirety of the worksheet to the best of your ability with sufficient detail to allow responses that might include resources, commentary, and
possible journals that might be interested in such a work.
Please respond to each of the prompts below by just typing after the prompt your response. Note that in the first question, it says “area(s)” – this is because if you are still deciding between topics, you are welcome to list more than one and I can help you through the process of selecting one at this time. Please be specific. For example, do not simply say “International Education Partnerships,” but rather use historical examples you want to directly explore such as the Chinese Education Mission (this is an example we will review, so sorry, that one is taken). Again, the more specific you are, the more responsive I can be with insight, possible sources, and more to make it easier to complete the final paper for the course.
1. The area(s) I plan to write about for my “Hidden History” is:
2. Why do you feel like this connects to the history of higher education in a meaningful way?
3. Why do you think this is a hidden, or unreported area?
4. How do you think adding this to the broader history of education will help future educators and administrators?
