[No Submission]

This assignment is optional.

Review the online resources in the 2-A-1 Forum and note which ones might be of specific value for your local history project. You may also want to start keeping notes on primary sources you find and would like to use for your project. Starting in Module 3, you will submit at least five resources each week for four weeks. This may be a good time to work ahead on your project.

No submission is required for this assignment.
