Explain in detail five (5) major events during the 1760s and 1770s that directly led to the American Revolution.

These questions are my way of testing your understanding of the textbook, my video lectures, and the discussions for the first series of modules. No late exams will be accepted under any circumstances. You need to treat these essays as “take-home, open-book essay exams”, which require well organized, thorough essay responses (perhaps more than a page per answer). Remember, even if you give a short – correct answer, others will give longer, well documented answers, with examples, and your short answer will not receive full credit. You must complete these exams on your word processor and submit them as ONE attachment (.doc, .docx, or .rtf formats only) as you practiced before in the extra credit assignment. I have reopened Modules 2-4 for your use. By now you should know my expectations, so please keep in mind that I expect these essays to be spell checked and completely proofread, if your essay is sloppy and reads like a rough draft, you may lose up to two full grades! DO NOT COPY AND PASTE MATERIAL FROM ANY SOURCE WITHOUT USING PROPER QUOTATIONS AND CITATIONS AS FAILURE TO DO SO IS PLAGIARISM AND WILL RESULT IN A 0/225 F GRADE FOR THE MIDTERM.
