2. Introduction Student Page Title Introduction Task Process Evaluation Conclusion Credits [ Teacher Page ] The War of 1812 was the war that established the United States as a world power and forced Great Brittan to recognize that we were no longer a colony. The causes of the War of 1812 are something that is even harder for historians to understand. These causes varried, but the most accepted cause of the War of 1812 were the embargo acts and the non-intercorse acts. These were repealed by the Brittish parliament prior This document should be written with the student as the intended audience. Write a short paragraph here to introduce the activity or lesson to the students. If there is a role or scenario involved (e.g., "You are a detective trying to identify the mysterious poet.") then here is where you'll set the stage. If there's no motivational intro like that, use this section to provide a short advance organizer or overview. Remember that the purpose of this section is to both prepare and hook the reader. It is also in this section that you'll communicate the Big Question (Essential Question, Guiding Question) that the whole WebQuest is centered around.
