As part of a study of US Presidential elections, class members track the history of an issue in the 2020 campaign. They create a timeline to determine if there are any patterns, if ideas about the issue have evolved, or if in issue is no longer relevant. After observing the timelines, individuals craft a short reflection about what they have learned from the exercise.
