[Frame] 1: Conducting Authentic Historical
Investigations in the Digital Age involves
students in engaging educational
experiences that allow them to make
comparisons, analyze a variety of sources,
construct plausible narratives, and forces
them to think critically about issues of
importance to the learner.
History instruction typically involves
memorization of names, dates, places, and
events. However, to promote interest and to
develop historical and critical thinking skills,
history instruction much shift from a focus on
the memorization of facts towards
approaches that utilize the investigation of
primary sources and allows for the
construction of authentic historical narratives.

Script:
(A student from the UCF Theatre Acting program to read the narrative)
[Script] Frame 1: Constructing authentic historical investigations consists of an eight element
approach.
[Script] Frame 2: The first elements consist of creating authentic questions Students must be
provided with opportunities to ask questions of personal interest. For example, consider this
statement by President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. “Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask
what you can do for your country.”
In order to know what was meant by President Kennedy when he spoke these words, consider
questions that might be interesting and useful for students to know these answers to. For
example, they might ask, “what else was going on at this particular time in history” or “who was
the audience of the speech.
[Script] Frame 3: To answer these questions, students need to utilize diverse sources
published documents, unpublished documents, oral histories, visual documents, and artifacts.
[Script] Frame: 4 The next element includes students scrutinizing the sources. While it is
important to collect an assortment of relevant sources, the purpose, context, and validity of the
sources are also critical to consider. By not accepting the sources as they are, or at face-value,
investigation in an effort to get a more comprehensive view of historical events.
[Script] Frame 5: Next, allow students to determine the context of each source. The context,
or the setting and purpose for which a document was constructed or intended, are vital to
consider. As with most situations, a document taken out of context can lead to invalid or
inaccurate conclusions.
[Script] Frame 6. Next - Sources should be read closely and efforts should be made to “read
between the lines.” The sources are the parts of the puzzle that help verify the events in history.
[Script] Frame 7: The next elements consist of considering alternative perspectives. This is
important, as it allows students to begin understanding that historical narratives often have more
than one, beginning, middle, end, setting, characters, problem, and resolutions.
[Script] Frame 8: Next, corroborate the sources is important. This additional verification
significantly improves the likelihood of the validity of sources.
[Script] Frame 9: Lastly, is the construction of plausible narratives. Opportunities should be
presented where students have a chance to construct historical narratives from a multitude of
sources to support where gaps in the sources or the author’s knowledge exist.

[Script] Frame 2. First, provide a hook to ignite the interest of the
student with provoking images, documents, or other sources
related to the content.
[Script] Frame 3. Second, identify Fundamental Question(s) that
encourage deep and on-going inquiries. In doing this, focus on
Non-Dichotomous Questions as well as questions that
Encourage Inquiry.
[Script] Frame 4. Third, Advocate engagement with Primary and
Secondary Sources
[Script] Frame 5. Fourth, consider Multiple Perspectives &
Historic Causation, through actions such as Challenging the
Mono-Causal History and Resisting the Historical Presentism
[Script] Frame 6. Fifth, Piece Together a Plausible Narrative that
Streamlines multiple perspectives.
[Script] Frame 7. Sixth, provide a complete Authentic
Assessment, and .
[Script] Frame 8. Lastly, encourage reflections on the learning

[Sound] Dog sniffing

[Script] Frame 2: What is it boy?
From these documents, what do we know about Thomas Garber,
What do we want to know?
[Script] Frame 3: Let ask the students to construct a KWL chart to
answer to these questions.
Who were Thomas' parents?
Did Thomas have other brothers and sisters?
Where was he born?
What did you learn about Thomas Garber from reading this letter?
What does this tell you about the life of a Civil War soldier?
What do you think was Thomas' job in the army?
[Script] Frame 4: As we move forward, the KWL chart can be used
to guide the inquires. Each column is used to pull out major details.
[Script] Frame 5: The K column is What they know
[Script] Frame 6: The W column What they want to know
[Script] Frame 7: The L column What they learned
[Script] Frame 8: KWL chart, could guide an inquired lesson that
would help them to learn in their investigation of Thomas Garber
and his involvement in the American Civil War.

[Script] Dr. Watson LipSync Frame 2:
Homes-How will we engage the students?
[Script] Sherlock LipSync: I say, the sources are elementary! My dear Watson,
Elementary!
(A student from the UCF Theatre Acting program)
[Script] Frame 3: The Shadow Valley website is an excellent place to start to locate data
about Thomas and were he was raised.
[Script] Here we will find the U.S. Census database that shows personal information that
can help us identify Thomas.
The 1860 data allows us to learn more about Thomas and the members of his family. For
example, we can learn that Thomas was 14 in 1860, and he could not read or write.
[Script] Frame 4: Next, we can introduce an article in the Harper’s Weekly of July 1863 that
describes the Battle of Upperville. There is a link to download an Alfred Waud’s Battlefield
sketch of Upperville, where Thomas was kill in battled.
[Script] Frame 5: Next, we have an announcement published in the Staunton Vindicator:
May 11, 1863 that announces Thomas death.
[Script] Frame 6: Followed by a letter from M. G. Harman that tells of Thomas fate and
interment.
[Script] Frame 7: and then Thomas Garber’s Tombstone is found in the Thornrose
Cemetery, were he was laid to rest in Staunton, VA beneath the sod of old Augusta.
[Script] Frame 8: Lastly, we might introduce the autobiography by Charles Triplett
O’Farrell that recounts tales of Thomas’s gallant nature, bravery and final moments as a
color-bearer prior to his dead in battle. On pages 79 and 80, one can find a fairly brief but
detailed description of Thomas’ time in the Twelfth Virginia Cavalry. For many students,
examining the autobiography pulls it all together and serves as a tribute to an amazing
individual whose exemplary character is clearly displayed through the sources utilized
throughout the historical investigation.

were useful, which were less useful, what they might do differently in a

(A student from the UCF Theatre Acting program )
[Script] Frame 1: In conclusion Conducting Authentic
Historical Investigations in the Digital Age will increase
enjoyment for studies history.
It is vital that history teachers move away from the
traditional, didactic methods found in the typical history
classroom.
[Script] Students must have opportunities to create
authentic questions, utilize, scrutinize, determine the
context of, and read a variety of primary and secondary
sources, consider alternative perspectives, corroborate
sources, and construct plausible narratives
[Script] With the increasing availability of freely
available primary and secondary sources,such as the
more then 36 million digitized primary sources available
from the Library of Congress, digital historical inquiry is
becoming increasingly easier to implement, affording
students with extensive opportunities to increase their
knowledge of the past, gain a better understanding of
the historical inquiry process, and develop greater skills
to negotiate the present.
