Land Of The Free? Immigration In The Gilded Age, Alex Voigt Jan 2016

Land Of The Free? Immigration In The Gilded Age, Alex Voigt

Curriculum Unit on the Gilded Age in the United States

Immigration has always been a controversial topic in America, from the first wave of Irish and German immigrants to the current issues surrounding Middle Eastern arrivals. Many Americans have been welcoming to the new cultures and workers, while others have been less than enthusiastic. The Gilded Age is no exception to this controversy. Millions of immigrants were able to make a life for themselves in America during this time period, as the boom in industrialization created a need for laborers and highly-concentrated settlement areas sprung up across the country. However, these immigrants also encountered many challenges and hardships along the …


Learning How To Relax: Culture Of Leisure In The Gilded Age, Alex Voigt Jan 2016

Learning How To Relax: Culture Of Leisure In The Gilded Age, Alex Voigt

Curriculum Unit on the Gilded Age in the United States

America as a whole was undergoing dramatic changes during the last quarter of the 19th century. Industrialization was a major part of that change, as it pushed industry to new heights and sparked the biggest wave of immigration in U.S. history. It also helped create a new emphasis on leisure among American workers, as improved production led to shorter work days and higher wages meant those workers had more money to spend with their newfound free time. Additionally, the boom in railroad production and advancement of subways and electric trollies in urban areas made transportation easier and encouraged people …

Why?), I am incorporating the following History Habits of Mind: "Perceive events and issues as they were experienced by people at the time, …

Curriculum Unit on the Gilded Age in the United States

As we begin to explore the Gilded Age (1870-1900), that era in American History sandwiched between the Civil War/Reconstruction and the Progressive Era to the Great War, we want students to grasp the enormity of the changes impacting the lives of Americans who have largely been engaged in farming in many cases not so different than their ancestors had for several hundreds of years. Technological changes in the first half of the 19th century contributed to some mechanization and manufacturing, but the enormity of the Civil War and the acquisition of the entire continental territory in the 1850s, accelerated …

Political Cartoons In The Gilded Age, Nickolas Szymanski Jan 2016

Political Cartoons In The Gilded Age, Nickolas Szymanski

Curriculum Unit on the Gilded Age in the United States

As we begin to explore the Gilded Age (1870-1900), that era in American History sandwiched between the Civil War/Reconstruction and the Progressive Era to the Great War, I want students to be able to understand political cartoons and why they were used so often during this era. They will do this by examining multiple cartoons and deciding what they are about and why they were made. I think it is important to teach this lesson because political cartoons are a big part of history and can help understand certain events better than normal reading material.

Jesusmania!: The Bootleg Superstar Of Gettysburg College, Devin Mckinney Jan 2016

Jesusmania!: The Bootleg Superstar Of Gettysburg College, Devin Mckinney

Gettysburg College Faculty Books

In 1971, an illegal performance of the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar was staged at Gettysburg College. It was the spontaneous project of students, professors and a renegade seminarian. Performance rights were being negotiated, when suddenly legal action was threatened against any group staging the work before its Broadway premiere. The cast and crew put the show on anyway, and many hundreds attended. But the outlaw production drew the college administration and the Lutheran church into controversy. Drawing from original documents, recordings, and interviews with the cast, this book tells the behind-the-scenes story of the production.
