Learn how to use primary sources
Break down barriers to working with historical sources
Help students to develop the skills they need to interact with primary sources in their research. Introduce how to find, understand, and critically evaluate sources of information. Students can explore concepts and methods using relevant source material, expert essays and case studies to investigate themes.
Empower your students
College students often struggle to use primary sources effectively in their research. Give them the confidence that they are engaging in a sound research process from the beginning.
The real power of using a primary source is that it requires the researcher to critically evaluate a source and interpret it for themselves.
There are many online repositories that contain primary sources, but the fact that AM is providing the additional context students need to use these resources effectively is very exciting.
