Overview

The goal of this discussion board is for each student to reflect on America’s changing values toward nature—from those values of the early settlers to the values held by Americans throughout the 19th century.

This activity helps you achieve the following lesson objectives:

• To understand why the 19th century is known as an era of exploitation of America’s natural resources/nature/etc.
• To identify the factors for America’s westward expansion.
• To identify the impact of Transcendentalism on America’s view toward nature.
• To understand how painters influenced an appreciation for wildness.
• To be able to explain America’s shift toward an appreciation of nature toward the end of the 19th century.

Is it acceptable to exploit our natural resources for progress?
