Nature of history
The document provides information about historical sources and concepts such as BC, AD, centuries, decades, and chronology. It defines key terms used in history and discusses primary and secondary sources. The document also explains bias and propaganda as important concepts for historians to be aware of and consider when analyzing sources.
What is History?
History is a record of the past that can be pieced together through various sources such as memories, first-hand accounts, artifacts, and myths. However, the telling and interpretation of history can be subjective and distorted based on the viewpoint of the teller or discoveries being made over time in bits and pieces. Ultimately, history remains partially unknown and open to interpretation.
Primary source documents
This document provides information about primary and secondary sources. It defines primary sources as original materials created during the time period being studied, such as documents, recordings, artifacts. Secondary sources are those created later that cite, comment on, or analyze primary sources, such as textbooks or commentaries. Examples of primary sources include diaries, letters, photographs, while secondary sources include biographies, reviews, and newspaper articles that interpret events. The document also discusses strategies for analyzing primary sources such as APPARTS and TACOS and provides several links to resources on using primary sources from organizations like the Library of Congress.
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 Examples of primary sources include diaries, letters, historical documents, newspapers, photos, and objects from a time period.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.
Sources of History
President Bush allowed the widow of a Marine killed in Iraq, Mary Holt, to punch him once in the left arm as a gesture of apology for her husband's death. The punch was delivered in the Oval Office with no boxing gloves or running start. White House Press Secretary Dana Perino later explained the stipulations of the punch, and said the president would have let Mrs. Holt punch his other arm if it wasn't still sore from a previous punch from a young girl. After delivering the blow, Mrs. Holt reportedly suffered massive internal bleeding when five Secret Service agents tackled her to the ground.

Methods of Historical Inquiry
This document outlines the steps of historical inquiry: 1) Formulate a clear research question, 2) Gather multiple primary and secondary sources, 3) Analyze sources using the 6 C's - content, citation, context, connections, critical thinking, and conclusion, 4) Synthesize the information from various sources to draw conclusions, and 5) Communicate findings by citing sources and explaining the process used to arrive at conclusions. Historians must carefully evaluate sources for bias, propaganda, inaccuracies and missing context to solve "mysteries of the past." Widely gathering and cross-checking multiple perspectives is key to overcoming shortcomings in any single source.

It encourages using primary sources for research and highlights upcoming events featuring them.
Primary and Secondary Sources
This is Dr. Goldberg's presentation on identifying, analyzing, and evaluating primary and secondary sources.
Overview of primary sources
Primary sources are first-hand accounts created during an event that provide direct evidence, while secondary sources analyze and interpret events through second-hand accounts. Primary sources include artifacts, documents, artworks and more, revealing personal perspectives, and secondary sources offer overviews and perspectives through published works like articles and books that may include some primary sources. Both can provide valuable insights but in different ways.
History outline
This document outlines some key concepts in the study of history. It discusses what history is, the importance of studying history, different types of sources (primary and secondary), and some limitations and biases that historians must account for. Specifically, it notes that history aims to understand and explain the past using available evidence, while acknowledging that evidence can be misinterpreted or biased depending on its source and the historian analyzing it. Historians must consider factors like who wrote a source, potential motives, and compare multiple accounts to develop a more reliable narrative of events.
Medieval slide show
The document discusses how historians study medieval history using primary and secondary sources. It provides examples of different types of primary sources like artifacts, documents, and photos that come from medieval times. Secondary sources created after the time period like textbooks are also examples. The document emphasizes that primary sources are important because they provide first-hand unaltered information, while secondary sources provide context and interpretation. It also discusses evaluating the authenticity and reliability of primary sources and the importance of corroborating information across multiple sources when studying history.
Primary & secondary sources with lecture
The document discusses classifying primary and secondary sources for history research. It defines primary sources as artifacts or eyewitness accounts created during the time period studied, while secondary sources are accounts written after the events by non-eyewitnesses. However, determining if a source is primary or secondary depends on the specific historical inquiry. The document also notes challenges students may face in classifying certain sources and the importance of using multiple sources to understand historical events.
Primary and Secondary Sources
This document discusses primary and secondary sources. [PRIMARY SOURCES] are original records created by people involved in or witnessing an event, such as diaries, photographs, artifacts, and oral histories.

Primary sources are original documents or artifacts created during the time being studied, providing first-hand accounts. Secondary sources are analyses or interpretations of primary sources created later. Primary sources include diaries, speeches, historical documents, photographs, and sound recordings from the period. Secondary sources include biographies, textbooks, newspaper articles analyzing past events, and scholarly articles interpreting primary sources. Both can provide valuable historical information but primary sources are considered more reliable as first-hand accounts.
Preparing for source based assessments
This document provides guidance on analyzing primary source documents for a history assessment. It discusses considering conflicting dates from an event, description, and publication. It advises citing a diary or website depending on where it's published. It also addresses assessing a source's purpose using context clues and determining values, limitations, and viewpoints presented while accounting for what is left unsaid. Finally, it provides examples of visual sources to analyze the messages they convey about events in British India in 1857 and 1930.
Primary and Secondary Sources
Primary sources are original accounts and documents created during or soon after an event by direct participants or observers, such as diaries, letters, speeches, interviews, photographs, audio/video recordings. Secondary sources interpret and analyze primary sources, including textbooks, encyclopedias, books, and articles that interpret history. Historians use both primary and secondary sources, with primary sources providing direct evidence and secondary sources helping to place primary sources into context.

Primary and secondary Sources
Primary sources are original records created by people involved in or witnessing an event, such as letters, diaries, interviews, photographs, and government documents. They provide a first-hand perspective on the event but may be biased. Secondary sources are analyses created after the event and can provide more perspectives but were not first-hand accounts. Examples of primary sources include personal records, visual materials like photos taken at the time, and oral histories from the period. Secondary sources interpret and analyze primary sources and include textbooks, biographies, and historical articles.

It begins by explaining how old the Earth is (13.7 billion years old) compared to human civilization (only existing for about 200,000 years). It then defines primary sources as original records created by those involved or witnessing an event, and secondary sources as information created after the fact, such as textbooks. Examples of primary sources include diaries, photographs, artifacts, and oral histories. Secondary sources are analyses created later, like biographies, histories, or charts. Social scientists like anthropologists, geographers, economists, and archaeologists use both primary and secondary sources to study different aspects of past societies.

Civics and economics final review
Here are the key points I would consider:
- Students have free speech rights, but schools also have authority over curriculum and activities that could disrupt education.
- The articles discuss sensitive topics and name other students without consent, which could violate privacy and cause harm.
- The principal could require removing names and work with students to address concerns while still publishing revised articles, balancing free expression and privacy.
- If agreement can't be reached, the principal has authority not to publish, though censoring due to just disagreement with views could be unconstitutional.
Overall, the situation requires balancing competing interests through respectful discussion to find an acceptable solution for all.

What is history
- 2. History is the story of the past It is the story of people, places and events
- 3. How can Historians find out about the past?
- 4. Historians are like detectives who gather information or evidence to put together the story of the past. They gather evidence from different sources e.g. archaeological digs, manuscripts or search the internet
- 5. Task Draw an object or bring one into class, that represents something from the past that is important to you. Explain what exactly this object represents about your past.
- 6. Objects from the past are called Artefacts
- 7. Activity In pairs choose an artefact Study it together and complete the questions
- 8. 1) Identify or describe the object you have chosen? 2) How old do you think it is? 3) What do you think it was used for? 4) What does this object tell you about life in the past? 5) Do you think the object comes directly from the past or is a replica of the time?
- 9. Is your object a Primary of Secondary source? Sources which come directly from the past, giving first-hand information are known as Primary Sources. Secondary sources are evidence that comes from a later date. They are written after the event.
- 11. Primary Sources Give examples of primary sources under each heading Written Visual Oral Artefact
- 12. Written Visual Oral Artefacts Diaries Letters Census Government Reports Autobiography Newspapers manuscript Paintings Photos Interviews Speeches Tools Bones Jewellery
- 13. Secondary Sources Secondary sources are evidence that comes from a later date. They are written after the event. A textbook is a secondary source as it was written long after most of the events that it describes
- 14. Can you think of other examples of secondary sources Biography Movies TV or radio documentary Internet History books ( Many secondary sources are put together using many different primary sources)
- 15. Which of the following are Primary or Secondary sources? a) The Census b) The Irish Times c) The Mona Lisa d) History text book e) The GPO
- 16. Where do we find sources? Libraries Archives Museums
- 17. Historians will use as many sources as possible and then compare what they have found. Why? This is to make sure that the story of the past is as accurate as possible. This is called cross-checking
- 18. How do historians judge the reliability of sources?
- 19. Historians judge whether the source is: a) Bias b) Accurate c) Prejudice d) Exaggerated e) Propaganda f) Fact or opinion Explain the meaning of each of these.
- 20. a) Bias – This means that the writer may have a strong , personal opinion about an event and tries to show that their opinion is right. b) Accurate – this means correct or exact. c) Prejudice – is where writers have made up their minds in advance and present only their own point of view d) Exaggerates –this is when a writer makes something seem greater than it really is. e) Propaganda – is where writers are trying to win the reader over to their point of view using posters, radio, tv and speeches
- 21. How do Historians put events in order? When historians find out information about the past, it is important to get events in the right order. They usually use dates. This makes it easier for people to follow the story of what happened. This is called chronological order.
- 22. There are a number of ways historians measure time to describe past events.
- 23. Explain the following: 1) A.D. 2) B.C. 3) Decade 4) Century 5) Periods or Ages 6) Millennium
- 24. Task: Create a timeline of your life using images and dates
- 25. Put these dates into the correct chronological order a) 315 AD b) 44 AD c) 1871 AD d) 1779 AD e) 3 AD
