Abstract
Lesson Abstract: This lesson involves students in a case study investigation into the United States' 1803 purchase of the Louisiana Territory from France. Students use primary and secondary resources to investigate the domestic and international motivations that facilitated the purchase, the constitutional and political issues surrounding Jefferson's decision, and the immediate and long-term impact this land exchange had on the development of the United States. Students work in collaborative groups and assume investigative roles as they examine historical maps and documents to complete their role-specific tasks. The collaborative lesson consists of 2 tiers: 1) a fact gathering investigation during which all students maintain a research journal detailing the events surrounding the purchase and the men involved in the negotiations, and 2) an analytic examination of the Purchase-related facts and individuals during which students complete role-specific tasks and generate a variety of authentic products. Completed group tasks include individual research journals, a map archive and timeline, a biographical dictionary, a collection of newspaper articles, a position statement involving one nation's perspective of the Louisiana Purchase, and a debate concerning the constitutionality of the Purchase. The lesson culminates with each student completing a DBQ, document based essay question.

Abstract
Lesson Abstract: Students follow the evolution of social welfare during the critical 1932-33 period from existing as a largely local and state effort to the adoption of relief programs as public responsibility. Students examine case study resources that document the end of Hoover's Unemployment Relief Committee and the birth of the New Deal's Emergency Relief Administration to discover how these agencies impacted depression-era Louisiana.

Abstract
Lesson Abstract: Newspapers of the 1802-1804 period document events related to the history of the Louisiana Territory and speculate concerning the future political status of the territory's residents. By recording both domestic and international views, these articles contain valuable clues with which we may understand the events leading up to one of the most remarkable land deals in history. Students analyze nineteenth century newspaper articles to uncover important facts related to the Louisiana Purchase. As students research, they complete a timeline of Louisiana events from the sixteenth century European explorations through the early nineteenth century. Students also complete a biographical dictionary (identification list) of significant individuals related to the Louisiana Purchase.
