    It is my belief that history is just a series of stories about real people. For this research
    project you are to choose one Native American tribe (except those listed on the following page)
    and tell me their story. Your paper should reflect the above outline but should not itemize the
    various elements – use a narrative (First or Third Person) format only. Do not use headings for
    each section – use transition sentences. In telling the story of your chosen tribe, feel free to
    add interesting information not included in the outline and to offer a fresh perspective
    regarding their culture, history, etc.
    The paper should be typed with 12-pt font, a minimum of 7 full pages to 10 pages in
    length, standard margins, and free of grammatical, spelling, and typing errors. You must use a
    minimum of five sources in your research, two of which must be primary sources. A
    bibliography listing all five sources (or more) is required, with primary and secondary sources
    clearly delineated. If you cite sources in your paper, you must also include a Works Cited page
    or provide citations in endnotes/footnotes. Cover pages, the bibliography, and Works Cited
    page do not count as part of the 7-10 page requirement. Your paper must be submitted
    through the Cultural Assessment portal no later than 8:00 A.M. September 24. Since the paper
    will also be reviewed by Canvas’ anti-plagiarism tool, remember to only use your own words.
    Remember, NO LATE PAPERS ARE ACCEPTED.
    We will be working on cultural assessments for several tribes throughout the semester
    so you should feel very comfortable working on your own research project. I have also provided
    sample cultural assignments for the Comanche and Mandan that will give you an idea of the
    different types of information that are available. Please review the following list to see which
    tribes you may not use for your research project. These are tribes that we will be covering
    during the semester, typically as homework assignments.
