For eachtime period in two chaptersthis semester, you will need to post scholarly information about Georgia history during the time period that is covered in that is covered in those two chapters. For example choose one article for any time period covered in chapter 1-2, then chapter 3-4, etc. for a total of eight blog posts.

It needs to be a scholarly article and the link will need to be posted with the information in case someone would like to read the article. Also to document your source information. It does not have to be long just some info to build a picture for us as to what was happening in our region throughout the period of history we are building. If you use an article or web site someone else has posted make sure you post different information. Summarize what you have read. Do not copy and paste the material.

This blog will be graded at the end of the semester and count as a research grade.

Example: Chapter 1-2: The Collision of Cultures

The exploration of Georgia by European nations probably start with Spanish explorer, Hernando De Soto in approx. 1540. The French would alsobriefly explore the area but would be expelled by the Spanish already in the area as they have established themselves in Florida and formed a fortified position in Guale, what we now know as St.Catherine's Island South of Savannah.
