Describe below how you will enhance the course, including a brief description of the subjects covered in the course and what activities or assignment(s) you intend to complete (i.e., length of paper, kind of presentation, etc).

Indians of North America is a course focusing on Native Americans, their aboriginal arrival into the Americas, as well as their lifestyles, cultures, and practices today. Since my major at Longwood is Pre-Medicine, I would like to focus my research on the medical aspect of these people's lives. I wish to review their medical backgrounds, their diseases before and after European contact, and their practices to cure these illnesses. In completing my research, I will have access to original Native American artifacts unearthed at the Longwood Archaeological Site at Staunton River over the past eight years, many of which may present evidence of medical practices among these people.   This honors level research would build on work I have already done on archaeological digs and would tie into my Pre-med major. The formal classification of the artifacts will result in a ten-page course paper, which would provide the basis for a five-minute oral presentation in class.  I also plan to submit an abstract of my work for presentation at the Virginias Regional Honors Conference in April.
