Presentation Transcript

  1. Write • Write for 5 or so minutes about a hero in your life (personal or historical). • Write about what makes this person a hero and why he/she is so important to you personally.

  2. Academic Integrity and historical interpretation Primary and Secondary sources

  3. PrimarySources • Primary source--an original source--a document, recording, artifact, or other source of information that was created at the time under study, usually by a source with direct personal knowledge of the events being described. • Let’s create a list of some examples.

  4. Secondary Sources • Secondary source--a document or recording that relates or discusses information originally presented elsewhere. • Secondary sources involve generalization, analysis, synthesis, interpretation, or evaluation of the original information. • Let’s list some examples. • How does a secondary source contrast with a primary source?

  5. Primary Source or not?

  6. Primary or Secondary source?

  7. Secondary or Primary Source? • This art was produced in print form in 1977 depicting John Brown.

  9. Let’s listen • The voice of a slave. • Is this a primary or secondary source?

  10. Let’s watch and listen • Open iTunes and watch the 1st lecture. • As we watch, think about whether this is a primary or a secondary source.

  11. For your presentations • Make sure to include the use of at least 2 primary sources---in this way you will be researching like professionally trained historians do. • It is required that you find and use at least 2 primary sources in your slavery presentations. • Continue your research---focus on finding primary sources for the rest of the day. • I want to see at least 3 completed slides before you leave today.
