Students Compete
|
The top 3 entries in each category are eligible to compete in National History Day in Missouri slated for the University of Missouri campus in Columbia, Mo. on Saturday, April 8. Entries ranked first and second in each category form Missouri's delegation to the National History Day Contest to be held June 11-15 in College Park, Maryland. Third place entries will be alternate delegates to the National Contest, should those in first or second place be unable to attend. The National History Day Office has selected “ Taking a Stand in History: People, Ideas, Events” as the theme for 2006. Students may 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 could take the form of a research paper, an exhibit (a display similar to a museum exhibit), a performance, or a documentary presented on slides, videotape, or computer program. For further information, please contact Dr. Paul Teverow, History Day Coordinator, Missouri Region 6, at (417) 625-3114.
