JOPLIN, MO (SNS) - The Missouri Southern State University Social Science Department hosted Missouri Region 6 History Day on Friday, March 7, 2008. Students in grades 6-8 competed in the Junior Division. Grades 9-12 formed the Senior Division.

 

All who placed in the top 3 are eligible to compete in the National History Day in Missouri contest on Saturday, April 12. State winners will compete in the National History Day contest in College Park, Maryland June 15-19.

 

The National History Day Office has selected “Conflict & Compromise in History” as the annual theme Students could explore any facet of World, American, or local history pertaining to the theme, so long as their entries include evidence of primary and secondary research and indicate the topic's significance in history.

Entries took the form of a research paper, an exhibit (a display similar to a museum exhibit), a performance, or a documentary presented on slides, videotape, Powerpoint program or website.

History Day entries came from area schools. Thanks to the dedication of area teachers, our district has established a statewide and even national reputation for the quality of its entries.

For further information, contact Dr. Paul Teverow, professor of History at MSSU and National History Day Coordinator, Missouri Region 6, at (417) 625-3114.
