In 2018 HIST317 - NZ History, a third year undergraduate History course at Victoria University of Wellington, had a focus on 'British and Irish migration to New Zealand 1800-1945'.
For the final assignment, students were asked to create a research question of their choosing within that broad course description, carry out primary research into the question, and create a short blog post, 3 timeline entries, and a visualisation of their choosing about that research, as well as a report about their research and the process of creating these digital outputs in lieu of a traditional undergraduate essay. The digital outputs of the students who chose to share their submitted work for this website are featured here. The timeline below includes two short entries and one longer entry from each student, relating to their research questions but all broadly related to the overall topic of the course. |
