This assessment gauges whether students can identify the historical event depicted in an iconic photograph and evaluate its historical significance. Successful students will draw on their knowledge of the past to identify this influential image of slain Kent State student Jeffrey Miller, who had been shot by the Ohio National Guard while protesting U.S. actions in Vietnam and Cambodia, and then explain how the event was historically significant.
Note: This assessment features an image that may not be appropriate for all students. Please review the assessment before class to determine if it is appropriate for your students.
