- Make sure you discuss the changes and continuities relevant to your topics from early imperial period (Zhou to Sui), mid centuries (Sui to Song), to late (Yuan to Qing) imperial China. You can choose one representative dynasty or time period from each of these three broad temporal divisions.
- Make sure you have a clear thesis statement and a concluding paragraph.
- Make sure you provide enough evidence from course materials to support your interpretations. Course materials are capaciously defined, including the textbook, readings on Brightspace, lectures, and the Ming Game.
