Research Questions and Their Significance

Good history projects depend on historians posing clear and meaningful questions.  Reread the two NEH proposals you were assigned earlier in the term.  Pick one of the two sample 2100 proposals.  Can you easily identify the research questions at the heart of all three proposals?  What are they?  How do the historians writing the proposals explain the larger significance of their question and its possible answer?  What advice do you think the two history professor might offer to the student for improving the student’s question or the explanation of its significance?
