OR OR Answers will be visually offered on one piece of printer paper. Be prepared to textually support your visual choices.
 * Consider the challenges faced by the Explorers/Settlers. Now, consider the challenges faced by Eric Greitens discussed at any point in his memoir. What similarities and differences do you observe? What conclusions can you draw about human motivation and responses to hardship as you analyze these two texts? Answer the question visually, being sure you are able to explain specific events and characteristics as they relate to each text.
 * Imagine working for a marketing company that has Winthrop/Smith as a client. You are hired to create a poster that promotes Winthrop’s/Smith's key ideas (in an effort to attract more folks to the Mass. Bay Colony/ Jamestown). Design this text, being sure to represent key ideas drawn from the sermon and his background.
 * Consider how the texts we have studied reveal the values held by the Native Americans and the Europeans. What are major areas of difference/similarity? How might you represent these ideas visually? You may create something from a contemporary perspective or, for a bit of a challenge, take the point of view of either the NA or the Pilgrims. Imagine creating a visual that advertised/warned others of the promises/threats of/to your way of life.
