Focused session

Research went very well today. Since the recent change in my topic I found a lot more information regarding how minorities were treated opposed to whites during the 19th century regarding civil rights. I found information on the civil rights movements of African Americans, Spanish Americans, and Native Americans. This information was very detailed with facts leading up to the cause of each revolution and the outcome each group achieved. Just from the fact that there were so many civil rights movements by different minority groups lets you know that civil rights during that time was a big problem. The unequal distribution of these rights led to some major reforms in which change needed.

Class Exercise 1

"Change of Topic"
Physical: When I began searching for my information I went to the UNC library website and searched for information regarding minorities and their rights during the 19th century.

Affective: I feel great about the information I found because I think it will be vary helpful.

Cognitive: I feel as though there will be much more information that I can use regarding my new topic.
