2. Presentation Objectives-1 Review foundational concepts of the CCGPS as they relate to primary sources. Review the philosophical  justification, for teaching with  primary source materials. Preview online resources for primary source materials. Demonstrate access & navigation of key digital repository sites. Articulate and demonstrate best practices for incorporating primary sources  into a lessons. Demonstrate using DBQs (document based questions) related to primary source materials.

3. Presentation Objectives-2 Demonstrate a collaborative instructional activity between an ESOL teacher and a Media Specialist Present an instructional activity to demonstrate the instructional use of online, primary source materials found on Galileo and numerous other free, content-rich digital repositories of archival materials. Provide audience with an opportunity to explore the Online Resources for Primary Source Material. Provide audience with materials for accessing resources for primary source material and other useful material  to be used to in their classrooms.

4. Essential Questions How do I access primary resources? How do primary resources support explicit instruction? How can teachers utilize primary sources to implement research-based differentiated instruction? What are DBQs and how should they be implemented during instruction? How can DBQs foster critical thinking among students?

10. Why Primary Resources? • Make pedagogical shift from traditional to constructivist teaching model. • Facilitate student driven inquiry vs. teacher driven instruction. • Present issues from multiple perspectives. • Allow for exploration through DBQs (document-based questions).

11. Why Primary Resources? • Develop critical thinking skills • Address various learning styles • Engage students in active learning

13. Integral Role of Primary Sources in CCGPS • Support Discipline-Specific Skills • Analysis, Comparison of Sources, Research • Argument, Persuasive Writing, Oral Communication, Speaking & Listening • Support Inquiry –Based Activities • Generate Questions, Take Notes, Organize Material, Find, Analyze, Evaluate & Cite Sources http://www.archives.gov/nae/education/pdf/primary-sources-and-historical-thinking-skills.pdf

14. DBQs?? Questions that ask students to look beyond the primary source and engage in: • Investigation • Analysis • Interpretation To determine • Source • Meaning • Point of view http://www.fdrlibrary.marist.edu/education/resources/dbq.html
