This document discusses the key differences and features of biographies and autobiographies. Biographies are written by someone else and provide context about the subject's life and times from the perspective of the author. Autobiographies are written by the subject themselves and provide a first-person account of their own life experiences and perspectives. Both genres can be used to learn facts about notable people and gain insights into their choices and the periods in which they lived.

History Lynne Martin Using sources
This document discusses primary and secondary sources and questions to ask when evaluating sources. Primary sources are first-hand accounts like diaries, letters, photos created during the event, which provide direct evidence but may be biased. Secondary sources are analyses created after the event from multiple primary sources, trying to be less biased, but are still often biased. When evaluating any source, one should consider when it was created, the author's attitude and potential biases, whether all facts are included, if it aims to persuade, and whether other sources corroborate it to determine how much the information can be trusted.
Primary & secondary sources
This document discusses why historians study the past and defines primary and secondary sources. It begins with asking students to think about why historians study the past and discuss their answers with a partner. It then defines a source as something used to learn about the past and lists examples of primary and secondary sources. Primary sources are direct evidence from the time period like documents, artifacts, and eyewitness accounts. Secondary sources are later analyses like history books, biographies, and documentaries. It concludes by providing questions historians should ask to evaluate sources.
Sources and Materials in Feature
This document provides guidance on collecting materials for feature writing. It discusses using personal experiences, interviews, printed sources like documents and publications, and online sources like databases, journals, and websites. It emphasizes conducting background research before interviews to have meaningful questions. Interviews should focus on those with personal experiences and choosing a main character. Facts should be fact checked from reliable sources like research institutes rather than individual blogs or social media. Background information and facts can come from experts, but personal experiences should be centered.
Biography
Bios (life) + graphia (writing) refers to the genre of biography which tells the story of a person's struggles and successes in life through various forms such as popular biography about famous people, historical biography about historical figures, and literary biography written by other writers. Biographies are different from other non-fiction texts in that they are about real people written by others, similar to reading a story with elements like characters, settings, beginnings, middles, and ends. To write an interesting biography, one should include details like date and place of birth/death, family information, lifetime accomplishments, major life events, and effects on society or historical significance.

Document Interpretation: Ultimate Skill of the HistorianPrimary Sources
Primary sources are generally first-hand accounts or records. They may have been written or created during the time period under investigation, or perhaps were written by someone who lived during that time period. Most crucially, they have not been interpreted by anyone else, though they may offer interpretations of the events they describe. Below are four examples of primary sources: a political cartoon, a page of correspondence, the title page of Thomas Paine's Common Sense, and a wartime poster encouraging women workers. As you can imagine, however, there are many more types of primary sources.
Countless items can be used by historians as primary sources. Almost anything you can imagine could be used as a primary source in some type of historical research. A fun exercise to help you understand the immensity of available primary sources is to look around the room you're in and ask yourself, "what would historians view or study one hundred years from now to understand the way we live and what we think today?"
The list below includes only a few of the types of primary sources utilized by historians. How many more can you add to the list?
letters • diaries • autobiographies • plays • novels • short stories • poems
scholarly journals • newspapers • popular magazines
official memoranda • government documents • census data
religious tracts • song lyrics
photographs • cartoons • posters • paintings • murals
films • television shows • performing arts recordings • email • musical recordings
clothing • political campaign signs • pottery • religious icons • tools • furniture
Secondary Sources
Secondary sources analyze, interpret, or comment upon primary sources. A secondary source says something about a primary sources, often illustrating patterns of recurring themes.
Perhaps the best example of a secondary source is your textbook. Open it to any chapter and read a couple of paragraphs and you will find that the authors have conducted extensive research utilizing primary sources. They have likely consulted other secondary sources as well. They have then written those paragraphs to explain what they have learned and how they understand the people and ideas of the past. The authors have interpreted the sources for you.

How do we know what we know about History? Primary and Secondary Sources
This document discusses the difference between primary and secondary sources for learning about history. It defines primary sources as first-hand accounts from those present at an event, and secondary sources as accounts created by others not present that obtain information from primary sources. Examples of primary sources include diaries, letters, historical documents, newspapers, photos, and objects from a time period. Secondary sources are described as textbooks, biographies, encyclopedias, and documentaries created by historians using primary sources. The document emphasizes that primary sources provide first-hand insights while secondary sources analyze and interpret events.
Biographies Vs Autobiographies
A biography is a story of someone's life written by another person from a second or third person perspective, using facts and interpretation to present who the subject was and how they influenced the world. An autobiography differs in that it is written by the subject about their own life experiences from a first person perspective without outside influence on the story. Biographers research materials like diaries and letters to present an objective but not always perfectly balanced account, while an autobiography allows one to share their life story from their own point of view.

An attempt to distinguish PRIMARY from SECONDARY sources.
* Source Matrix: Artistic (Primary/Secondary) - Scientific (Primary/Secondary)
* Types of Sources
Unit 1 lesson 1
Primary sources are first-hand accounts or objects from the past, while secondary sources are later accounts of past events. When analyzing primary sources, historians consider factors like the creator's perspective and potential biases. Most evidence has some bias, so historians critically examine sources and compare them to get a full picture of events from the past. Different types of sources like documents, photographs, maps, artifacts, and political cartoons require considering specifics about their context, purpose, symbols, and what details are included or excluded.
Nonfiction narrative.pptx
This document discusses various forms of non-fiction narrative writing including biographies, memoirs, autobiographies, and personal narratives. It defines these terms and explains the key differences between them. Biographies are written in third-person and tell the entire life story of their subject using sources beyond just the subject's memories. Autobiographies are written in first-person and tell the story of the author's own life. Memoirs focus on specific meaningful events from the author's past. Personal narratives also recount real events from the author's life but are typically shorter focusing on just one event or experience.
Analyzing Primary Sources
The document discusses analyzing primary and secondary sources in social studies. Primary sources are first-hand accounts created by witnesses to events, such as letters, diaries, photographs. Secondary sources are accounts created after the fact by people who did not witness the events. When analyzing sources, historians consider factors like the creator's identity and potential biases, whether they had first-hand knowledge, and whether the evidence aligns with other sources. The document provides tips for analyzing different types of sources, including texts, photographs, political cartoons, maps, and artifacts.

Lesson-2 about the meaning of history.pptx
This document discusses key concepts in history and historical analysis. It defines history as the study of past events through inquiry and investigation. Sources of historical data can be written, like narratives, documents, and records, or non-written, like artifacts and oral traditions. Primary sources are original materials created at the time under study, while secondary sources are interpretations created later. Historians use various types of criticism, like external and internal criticism, to evaluate sources and establish their authenticity and reliability for accurately understanding history. The document provides examples of different source types and criticisms to illustrate these important historical methodologies.
Primary_20and_20Secondary_20Sources.ppt
Primary sources are original records created by people involved in or witnessing an event, such as diaries, photographs, or artifacts. They provide a first-hand perspective but may be biased. Secondary sources are created later and include histories, textbooks, or analyses that interpret and build upon primary sources. While less direct, secondary sources can provide more context and consider multiple viewpoints. This document provides examples to distinguish between primary and secondary sources and classify different materials.

Assigment 1
This document provides context for an assignment to analyze two media texts using semiotic tools. It discusses semiotics and the work of theorists like Saussure and Pierce who studied how meaning is derived from signs. The student will analyze a black-and-white photo from the Vietnam War showing a soldier with his head down next to a gun, exploring signs like the framing, colors, and body language. They will also examine the season one poster for Stranger Things, looking at signs that reference 1980s culture and films that inspired the show. The analysis will discuss how different signs create meaning and representation in the selected media texts.
The Great Depression
The Great Depression was caused by the stock market crash of 1929. People were buying stocks on margin and when everyone started selling, millions lost their fortunes. Many banks closed, causing people to lose their homes and live in tents. Shirley Temple was a famous child star during this era who appeared in films and on television to lift people's spirits. FDR introduced the New Deal programs to provide relief, recovery, and reform to help the country get out of the depression.
Recycling
Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours. Aluminum cans are one of the most recycled products, with over 80 billion cans recycled every year in the US. Glass and plastic take the longest to decompose but can be recycled indefinitely without losing quality. Composting is the oldest form of recycling, as seen in forests where leaves decompose naturally without building up or releasing toxins into the soil.

Questioning
Effective readers use questioning as a strategy to stay engaged with text and deepen their understanding. They actively wonder about who, what, when, where, how, and why while reading. Questions can help readers learn new information, clarify confusion, and comprehend the text. Readers find answers to their questions right in the text, by searching the text, using their own background knowledge combined with what's in the text, or on their own. Asking thick questions about broad concepts and thin questions about details helps readers expand their thinking.
