In this sample, which is included here by permission of the writer, student Rosa Broach does a competent job with an early version of research option W on the U. S. entry into World War I.

Students were required to write an abstract to be turned in during the class when we discussed their research question.  In Rosa's case, that was during the time we discussed Book 3.  Students were also asked to include the abstract with their documented report.  Below is a facsimile of Rosa's abstract.
