This document discusses several standards and procedures that historians use to evaluate the reliability and credibility of historical sources. It presents guidelines for source criticism that involve analyzing attributes of the source like date, authorship, and evidential value. Methods are provided for assessing contradictory sources, like preferring sources that can be confirmed by outside authorities. Principles of source criticism emphasize considering factors like originality, proximity to events, eyewitness status, agreement between independent sources, and lack of bias. Checklists are offered for evaluating eyewitness testimony and indirect witnesses. Criteria for accepting oral tradition and making arguments based on the best explanation of evidence are also summarized.

The document provides information on literature produced under U.S. colonialism in the Philippines. It discusses three groups of writers - those who wrote in Spanish and focused on nationalism, those who wrote in Tagalog and addressed social conditions, and those who wrote in English and imitated American styles. Several notable Filipino authors and their works are then described, including poems, short stories, plays and novels written in languages like Tagalog, Ilocano, Cebuano and Spanish during this period that touched on themes of independence, social issues, and love.
This document discusses different types of goods and their relationship to happiness. It outlines essential vs accidental goods, real vs apparent goods, and perfective vs non-perfective goods. Essential goods fit man's natural needs, while accidental goods satisfy wants. Real goods have intrinsic value, while apparent goods are actually evils perceived as good. Perfective goods contribute to human perfection, while non-perfective goods only contribute externally. The document also discusses perfect vs imperfect goods, and different philosophers' views on the greatest good, or summum bonum, including Aristotle's view of happiness and Christian philosophers' view of God as the ultimate end.

This document provides an overview of One Thousand and One Nights, also known as Arabian Nights. It is a classic collection of Middle Eastern and South Asian stories and folk tales compiled in Arabic during the Islamic Golden Age. The stories were added over many centuries by various authors and translators across the Middle East and North Africa. The oldest Arabic manuscript dates back to the 14th century. Some of the most famous stories from the collection, like Aladdin and Ali Baba, were not originally part of the Arabic versions but were added by European translators. The main frame story involves Scheherazade telling stories to King Shahryar over 1,001 nights to delay her execution. The tales use techniques like frame stories,
Knowing the critic's specific purpose may be to make value judgments on a work, to explain his or her interpretation of the work, or to provide other readers with relevant historical or biographical information and the critic's general purpose, in most cases that is to enrich the reader's understanding of the literary work presented.
The Condition o the Philippine Environment and Natural Resources. Environment...Rexther Solis
The document discusses the natural resources and environmental issues facing the Philippines. It notes that the country's forests, fisheries, mangroves, and minerals have been depleted over time due to lack of sustainable practices. Pollution is also a major problem, degrading air and water quality. Poverty, population growth, urbanization and natural disasters are exacerbating environmental degradation. The Philippine Strategy for Sustainable Development was created to reconcile environmental and economic goals through integrating conservation into decision-making, proper resource pricing, education, and controlling pollution and population growth.
Rizal enrolled at the University of Santo Tomas in 1877 at age 16 to study philosophy and letters, and later medicine. He faced opposition from his mother but support from his father and brother. At UST, he experienced discrimination from Spanish professors. Rizal excelled in literature and poetry competitions. He socialized with girls from prominent Filipino families. After four years, he decided to continue his studies abroad in Spain with the support of his siblings and friends, without informing his parents or the Spanish authorities.
Literature can be categorized into two major types: prose and poetry. Prose includes genres like novels, short stories, plays, essays, biographies, news reports and orations. Poetry can be narrative, lyric or dramatic. Narrative poetry tells a story through verse, like epics, ballads and metrical tales. Lyric poetry expresses emotions through short, simple forms like sonnets, odes and psalms. Dramatic poetry includes genres meant to be performed, like comedies, tragedies and farces. Certain literary works from around the world have had significant influence, such as religious texts like the Bible and Quran, and classics like the Iliad, Mahabharata and Arabian Nights

It expresses how labor sustains families and allows future generations to carry on the work. The hymn highlights that a person who struggles and works will be able to teach their offspring to maintain the values of labor.
This document discusses and compares the historical and biographical approaches to literary criticism. The historical approach examines the context surrounding the author and time period a work was created, and assumes the relationship between art and society influences a work. The biographical approach focuses on illuminating a work's meaning and intent through examining facts about the author's life. An example is then given analyzing Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn through both the historical context of Twain's life in Hannibal, Missouri, and biographical details. The document concludes by briefly introducing moral-philosophical approaches which interpret works within the philosophical context of their time period.

Readings in Philippine history for 1st year collegemaloulapulapu01
This document provides an overview of key concepts for studying history, including:
- The importance of asking questions like what, who, where, when, how and why during historical research.
- The different types of sources used in history, including primary sources created during or near the time being studied, secondary sources which analyze primary sources, and tertiary sources which are further removed.
- Guidelines for evaluating the reliability and credibility of sources, such as considering factors like whether sources agree, proximity to events, corroboration, and potential for bias. The document outlines steps to take if sources contradict each other.
This paper is Peace research and source criticism; using historical methodology to information gathering. The methods of historical research was covered in this study and questions asked in source criticism
IS HISTORY RELIABLE?
History always has been deeply politicized and has always followed the order of rulers.
No wonder there is a saying that winners write history.
It is especially annoying that after the time of those who write and rewrite history is gone, we are left with a shamelessly distorted history, and generation after generation, piles up lies on lies.
Of course, working with primary sources partially solves the problem of these lies, but the fact is that those who rewrite history at the same time eliminate, or at least permanently “lose” the sources that are objectionable to them, hiding them so that no one can find them.
The main enemy of history is interpretation, and without some sort of interpretation it is impossible to tell about a single historical episode, since the very selection of facts depends on the historian.
In addition, human memory is poorly adapted to an unbiased memorization of facts. Iven witness accounts most often do not include a description of what happened, but the interpretation that the witness gives to an event.
Therefore, unintentionally, any historical event is distorted even by its direct witnesses. The true historic situation is hardly accessible for objective study. Even at the very moment of the event, few are aware of what is really happening.
In addition to everything, any generalization and comparison of some historical events with others leads to even greater distortion.
But, unfortunately, we have no other source than historical facts for discussing the philosophy of world politics and its evolution. What has changed and what remains the same? Where is the world going? Is there any truth to conspiracy?
These issues concern us because everyone knows that world disasters can ruin our lives and the lives of our children and grandchildren. The fact of the matter is that there are not so many prosperous countries in the world whose inhabitants frankly do not give a damn about world processes. And such seemingly calm countries periodically break into the depths of economic crises, terror and even wars.
That is why history is not an idle pursuit at all. This is dynamite, which is often put under our lives. Under the guise of restoring historical justice, a lot of blood and bitter tears are shed.
This document discusses the debate around whether history can be objective or subjective. It defines subjectivity as being influenced by personal feelings, while objectivity is based on unbiased facts. Several historians and philosophers are discussed who have differing views, with some arguing history inherently involves interpretation and is therefore subjective. However, others believe objectivity is still possible if historians compare interpretations and evidence to draw conclusions. The document also notes that lack of complete primary sources and destruction of evidence over time can make objectivity challenging. In the end, it concludes that while history requires some subjectivity, objectivity from facts is still necessary to draw valid conclusions about the past.
Sources of History- Readings in the Philippine HistoryRomalieGalleto
The first chapter of the Readings in the Philippine History. It comprises of the discussions about sources of history and historical methods to critically examine historical evidences from different accounts and sources
This document discusses the meaning and practice of history. It defines history as the study of past events through examining written and material evidence from the time period. Historians investigate history using both factual records of events and speculative theories about why events occurred. The document outlines different types of primary sources used in historical research, such as narratives, documents, artifacts, and oral histories. It also distinguishes between primary sources created during the time period versus secondary sources of interpretation created later. Historical analysis requires determining the authenticity and reliability of sources through external and internal criticism.
Critical Thinking and the Use of Evidence, by Professor Joel HaywardProfessor Joel Hayward
By the end of this lecture you should be able to:
Understand the value of the “Socratic Method”
Understand the role and importance of skepticism
Compare and contrast opinions and arguments
Evaluate the types, strengths and limitations of the evidence available
Compare and contrast the value of primary sources and secondary sources
The document discusses various aspects of historical research including:
1. The definition and areas of history as well as views on the value of historical research.
2. Historical research as a modern undertaking aimed primarily at critical search for truth.
3. The characteristics of contemporary historical research including methods such as formulating problems, gathering sources, and criticizing sources both externally and internally.
4. The strengths and limitations of historical research in only providing a partial view of the past based on surviving records.
Historical Research is the systematic and objective evaluation and synthesis of evidence in order to establish facts and draw conclusions about past events.
This document discusses sources of historical information and different types of sources. It explains that primary sources are first-hand accounts created by eyewitnesses, while secondary sources are created later and interpret or analyze primary sources. The document emphasizes the importance of primary sources for understanding history as it was experienced, and provides guidance on examining sources by considering their context, understanding their meaning and message, and evaluating potential biases.
Ethics in academic research: avoiding plagiarismDr. Utpal Das

Sample Study
The document provides an overview of how to analyze primary sources in Philippine history. It discusses that primary sources provide direct evidence from the time period being studied, while secondary sources are interpretations of primary sources created later. The document outlines six steps to effectively analyze primary sources: identify the main idea, cite the creator and time of creation, identify author biases, understand the historical context, recognize connections to prior knowledge, and determine the source's contributions to understanding history. Analyzing sources involves considering the physical nature, purpose, methods of conveying messages, and intended audience.
History enables one to deal with the challenges and opportunities of the current and somewhere in the future by assisting one in comprehending the tremendous complexity of our world. We gain a feeling of ourselves from history. It's important for people to become aware of their common history. I believe that we are who we are today because of prior events. Insight into the civic and daily lives of the Filipino people as well as one's own civic lives can be gained by studying the history. The Philippines is not the only country that has this problem; other countries also do. We study about history to see the origins and growth of the Philippines via its history. Our sense of nationality is bolstered by it.
This document defines ethnographic research and outlines the ethnographic research process. It discusses key characteristics of ethnographic research such as being conducted in a natural context and emphasizing everyday experiences through observation and interviews. The document also describes common ethnographic research techniques like triangulation, participant observation, and taking field notes. It provides examples of historical research studies and outlines the steps involved in historical research, including defining the problem, locating sources, summarizing information, and evaluating sources. Limitations of historical research discussed include relying on limited surviving records and not ensuring a representative sample.
Evidence is important for convincing an audience to accept a claim. There are different types of evidence including factual evidence like statistics and testimony from experts, as well as precedents from legal cases or personal experiences. The quality and quantity of evidence must be tailored to the target audience, whether they initially support the claim, are neutral, or oppose it. Strong evidence presented in a clear, logical manner can help audiences understand and assent to an argument.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Standards in critiquing historical data
1. Standards in critiquing historical data
and
Process in Evaluating Historical DataDaphandgelmy
2. Historical method
• comprises the techniques and guidelines by
which historians use primary sources and other
evidence, including the evidence of archaeology,
to research and then to write histories in the
form of accounts of the past. The question of the
nature, and even the possibility, of a sound
historical method is raised in the philosophy of
history as a question of epistemology. The study
of historical method and of different ways of
writing history is known as historiography.
3. Garraghan divides source criticism into
six inquiries:
1. When was the source, written or unwritten,
produced (date)?
2. Where was it produced (localization)?
3. By whom was it produced (authorship)?
4. From what pre-existing material was it produced
(analysis)?
5. In what original form was it produced
(integrity)?
6. What is the evidential value of its contents
(credibility)?
4. Procedures for contradictory sources
Bernheim (1889) and Langlois & Seignobos (1898) proposed a seven-step procedure for
source criticism in history:
1. If the sources all agree about an event, historians can consider the event proved.
2. However, majority does not rule; even if most sources relate events in one way, that
version will not prevail unless it passes the test of critical textual analysis.
3. The source whose account can be confirmed by reference to outside authorities in
some of its parts can be trusted in its entirety if it is impossible similarly to confirm
the entire text.
4. When two sources disagree on a particular point, the historian will prefer the source
with most "authority"—that is the source created by the expert or by the
eyewitness.
5. Eyewitnesses are, in general, to be preferred especially in circumstances where the
ordinary observer could have accurately reported what transpired and, more
specifically, when they deal with facts known by most contemporaries.
6. If two independently created sources agree on a matter, the reliability of each is
measurably enhanced.
7. When two sources disagree and there is no other means of evaluation, then
historians take the source which seems to accord best with common sense.
5. Core principles for determining
reliability
The following core principles of source criticism were formulated by
two Scandinavian historians, Olden-Jørgensen (1998) and Thurén (1997):
1. Human sources may be relics such as a fingerprint; or narratives such as a
statement or a letter. Relics are more credible sources than narratives.
2. Any given source may be forged or corrupted. Strong indications of the
originality of the source increase its reliability.
3. The closer a source is to the event which it purports to describe, the more one
can trust it to give an accurate historical description of what actually happened.
4. An eyewitness is more reliable than testimony at second hand, which is more
reliable than hearsay at further remove, and so on.
5. If a number of independent sources contain the same message, the credibility of
the message is strongly increased.
6. The tendency of a source is its motivation for providing some kind of bias.
Tendencies should be minimized or supplemented with opposite motivations.
7. If it can be demonstrated that the witness or source has no direct interest in
creating bias then the credibility of the message is increased.
6. Eyewitness evidence
R. J. Shafer offers this checklist for evaluating eyewitness testimony:
1. Is the real meaning of the statement different from its literal meaning? Are words used in
senses not employed today? Is the statement meant to be ironic (i.e., mean other than it says)?
2. How well could the author observe the thing he reports? Were his senses equal to the
observation? Was his physical location suitable to sight, hearing, touch? Did he have the proper
social ability to observe: did he understand the language, have other expertise required
(e.g., law, military); was he not being intimidated by his wife or the secret police?
3. How did the author report?, and what was his ability to do so?
1. Regarding his ability to report, was he biased? Did he have proper time for reporting? Proper place for
reporting? Adequate recording instruments?
2. When did he report in relation to his observation? Soon? Much later? Fifty years is much later as most
eyewitnesses are dead and those who remain may have forgotten relevant material.
3. What was the author's intention in reporting? For whom did he report? Would that audience be likely
to require or suggest distortion to the author?
4. Are there additional clues to intended veracity? Was he indifferent on the subject reported, thus
probably not intending distortion? Did he make statements damaging to himself, thus probably not
seeking to distort? Did he give incidental or casual information, almost certainly not intended to
mislead?
4. Do his statements seem inherently improbable: e.g., contrary to human nature, or in conflict
with what we know?
5. Remember that some types of information are easier to observe and report on than others.
6. Are there inner contradictions in the document?
7. Indirect witnesses
• Garraghan says that most information comes from "indirect witnesses," people
who were not present on the scene but heard of the events from someone
else. Gottschalk says that a historian may sometimes use hearsay evidence. He
writes, "In cases where he uses secondary witnesses, however, he does not rely
upon them fully. On the contrary, he asks:
• (1) On whose primary testimony does the secondary witness base his statements?
(
• 2) Did the secondary witness accurately report the primary testimony as a whole?
• (3) If not, in what details did he accurately report the primary testimony?
• Satisfactory answers to the second and third questions may provide the historian
with the whole or the gist of the primary testimony upon which the secondary
witness may be his only means of knowledge. In such cases the secondary source
is the historian's 'original' source, in the sense of being the 'origin' of his
knowledge. Insofar as this 'original' source is an accurate report of primary
testimony, he tests its credibility as he would that of the primary testimony itself."
8. Oral tradition
Gilbert Garraghan maintains that oral tradition may be accepted if it satisfies either two "broad conditions" or six
"particular conditions", as follows:
1. Broad conditions stated.
1. The tradition should be supported by an unbroken series of witnesses, reaching from the immediate and first reporter of the
fact to the living mediate witness from whom we take it up, or to the one who was the first to commit it to writing.
2. There should be several parallel and independent series of witnesses testifying to the fact in question.
2. Particular conditions formulated.
1. The tradition must report a public event of importance, such as would necessarily be known directly to a great number of
persons.
2. The tradition must have been generally believed, at least for a definite period of time.
3. During that definite period it must have gone without protest, even from persons interested in denying it.
4. The tradition must be one of relatively limited duration. [Elsewhere, Garraghan suggests a maximum limit of 150 years, at
least in cultures that excel in oral remembrance.]
5. The critical spirit must have been sufficiently developed while the tradition lasted, and the necessary means of critical
investigation must have been at hand.
6. Critical-minded persons who would surely have challenged the tradition – had they considered it false – must have made no
such challenge.
Other methods of verifying oral tradition may exist, such as comparison with the evidence of archaeological remains.
More recent evidence concerning the potential reliability or unreliability of oral tradition has come out of fieldwork
in West Africa and Eastern Europe.[10]
Once individual pieces of information have been assessed in context, hypotheses can be formed and established by
historical reasoning.
9. Argument to the best explanation
C. Behan McCullagh lays down seven conditions for a successful argument to the best explanation:
1. The statement, together with other statements already held to be true, must imply yet other statements
describing present, observable data. (We will henceforth call the first statement 'the hypothesis', and the
statements describing observable data, 'observation statements'.)
2. The hypothesis must be of greater explanatory scope than any other incompatible hypothesis about the same
subject; that is, it must imply a greater variety of observation statements.
3. The hypothesis must be of greater explanatory power than any other incompatible hypothesis about the same
subject; that is, it must make the observation statements it implies more probable than any other.
4. The hypothesis must be more plausible than any other incompatible hypothesis about the same subject; that is,
it must be implied to some degree by a greater variety of accepted truths than any other, and be implied more
strongly than any other; and its probable negation must be implied by fewer beliefs, and implied less strongly
than any other.
5. The hypothesis must be less ad hoc than any other incompatible hypothesis about the same subject; that is, it
must include fewer new suppositions about the past which are not already implied to some extent by existing
beliefs.
6. It must be disconfirmed by fewer accepted beliefs than any other incompatible hypothesis about the same
subject; that is, when conjoined with accepted truths it must imply fewer observation statements and other
statements which are believed to be false.
7. It must exceed other incompatible hypotheses about the same subject by so much, in characteristics 2 to 6, that
there is little chance of an incompatible hypothesis, after further investigation, soon exceeding it in these
respects.
McCullagh sums up, "if the scope and strength of an explanation are very great, so that it explains a large number and
variety of facts, many more than any competing explanation, then it is likely to be true
10. Statistical inference
• McCullagh states this form of argument as follows;
• There is probability (of the degree p1) that whatever is an A is a B.
• It is probable (to the degree p2) that this is an A.
• Therefore (relative to these premises) it is probable (to the
degree p1 × p2) that this is a B.
• McCullagh gives this example:[14]
• In thousands of cases, the letters V.S.L.M. appearing at the end of a Latin
inscription on a tombstone stand forVotum Solvit Libens Merito.
• From all appearances the letters V.S.L.M. are on this tombstone at the
end of a Latin inscription.
• Therefore these letters on this tombstone stand for '’Votum Solvit Libens
Merito’’.
• This is a syllogism in probabilistic form, making use of a generalization
formed by induction from numerous examples (as the first premise).
11. Argument from analogy
• The structure of the argument is as follows:
• One thing (object, event, or state of affairs) has
properties p1 . . . pn and pn + 1.
• Another thing has properties p1 . . . pn.
• So the latter has property pn + 1.
• McCullagh says that an argument from analogy, if sound, is either a
"covert statistical syllogism" or better expressed as an argument to
the best explanation. It is a statistical syllogism when it is
"established by a sufficient number and variety of instances of the
generalization"; otherwise, the argument may be invalid because
properties 1 through n are unrelated to property n + 1, unless
property n + 1 is the best explanation of properties 1 through n.
Analogy, therefore, is uncontroversial only when used to suggest
hypotheses, not as a conclusive argument.
