The National History Club is holding the Lessons of Leadership Contest.
Guidelines
This Spring marks the 150th anniversary of Robert E. Lee’s surrender to Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox
Courthouse, bringing an end to the Civil War that killed over 600,000 Union and Confederate soldiers. This contest invites NHC chapter members to explore the causes, figures, and events of the Civil War.
Students are asked to select an historical figure, analyze his/her decision making during the War, and detail how that person influenced the scope of the War and also History in general.
Using descriptive examples of challenging decisions or vexing problems that this person had to make or solve, we seek people whose courage and honor can guide us today.
Contest entries can be submitted in any three of the following formats:
An essay of not more than 2,000 words, supplemented with a bibliography and endnotes. Entries may be
submitted in either of the following forms: 1) Microsoft Word document or 2) PDF document.
A documentary that reflects your ability to communicate your figure’s importance, and also helps you develop skills in using photographs, video, graphic presentations, etc. Documentaries should not exceed more than 10 minutes, and sources used should be credited in an annotated bibliography.
A website that reflects your ability to use website design software and computer technology to communicate how your historical figure influenced history. Your website should include a collection of web pages, interconnected with hyperlinks, that presents primary and secondary sources and interactive multimedia. Sources used should be credited in an annotated bibliography.
All entries must be received by April 1, 2015.
Email to Bob Nasson at rnasson@nationalhistoryclub.org/ Please type Lessons of Leadership in the subject line.
Submissions will be judged by the NHC Advisory Board. Winners will be announced at the end of April.
