Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.
An Interview with the Paxton Boys: Assignment & Rubric
12019-01-13T19:42:15-08:00Will Fenton82bf9011a953584cd702d069a30cbdb6ef90650a72004Montgomery Wolf and Eleanor Andersenplain2019-02-09T14:07:59-08:00Will Fenton82bf9011a953584cd702d069a30cbdb6ef90650aInstructions You will work in small groups to create a podcast in which one host interviews a Paxton ally and a Paxton critic. The Paxton ally should state their demands, why they're making those demands, and their reactions to the outcomes of the violence. The Paxton critic should state their critique, why they think the Paxton ally is wrong, and their reaction to the Paxton violence. Like any good judge, the interviewer should remain skeptical and ask many thoughtful questions.
Steps
Read the assigned primary sources.
Create an outline of what a Paxton critic and ally would say and how an impartial host would respond.
Record your podcast with a computer or smartphone audio recording application. For example, Voice Recorder & Audio Editor (iOS) or Voice Recorder (Android) are free downloads. Your recordings should be 5-10 min.
