Primary Sources
![Page 4: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
A primary source is an original source, a piece of evidence created or produced during the time period under study
Primary sources are the closest you can get to an event – unfiltered, right from the horse’s mouth!
Secondary sources are reactions to, comments on, or interpretations of primary sources
Primary Sources defined
![Page 5: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Original Documents◦ Autobiographies, diaries, e-mail, interviews, letters,
minutes, news film footage, official records, photographs, raw research data, speeches
Creative Works◦ Art, drama, films, music, novels, poetry
Relics or Artifacts◦ Buildings, clothing, DNA, furniture, jewelry, pottery
Examples of primary sources

Students working with authentic materials tend to create meaningful connections to the subject
Primary source analysis techniques require critical thinking
Teaching with primary sources
![Page 7: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Inquiry-BasedLearning
![Page 8: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
One of the common beliefs underlying the Standards for the 21st Century Learner (AASL)
“Inquiry is defined as a stance toward learning in which the learners themselves are engaged in asking questions and finding answers, not simply accumulating facts (presented by someone else) that have no relation to previous learning or new understanding.” (AASL, 2007, p 17)
Inquiry
![Page 9: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
“Anytime they [students] are questioning, finding answers, discovering new ideas, and constructing their own meaning they are drawing upon their skills of inquiry” (AASL, 2007, p. 17)
Inquiry - continued

Inquiry doesn’t replace information literacy;
it encompasses it. (Fontichiaro, 2010, p. 13)
![Page 11: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Stripling: Model of Inquiry◦ Six step model of inquiry-based learning process◦ Describes six phases and their thought processes◦ Model is recursive and reflective
Kuhlthau: Information Search Process◦ Six stages of the information search process◦ Views process from three angles
Physical - actual actions taken Affective – feelings experienced Cognitive – thoughts concerning process and content
Two models of Inquiry

An information search is a process of construction which involves the whole experience of the person, feelings as well as thoughts and actions.
(Kuhlthau 1991, p. 362)
Information Search Process

Start small – select historical picture Brainstorm meaningful connections to the
picture
Getting started
◦ What do you already know?
◦ Have you heard stories about this?
◦ Have you ever (done anything that is depicted here)?

![Page 25: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Develop open-ended research questions◦ Avoid questions with one-word answers
Developing questions routine (Johnson, 2010):1. Write five curiosity driven questions about
image2. Cull your list and keep questions that:
require complex answers connect to “big idea” in state content standards fill a knowledge gap matter
3. Improve remaining questions
Questioning Primary Sources
![Page 26: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Three actions recommended by the LoC◦Observe: Have students identify and note
details◦Reflect: Encourage students to generate and
test hypotheses about the source◦Question: Have students ask questions to lead to
more observations and reflections
Establish Thinking Routines

What do you notice first? Find something small but interesting. What do you notice that you didn’t
expect? What do you notice that you can’t explain? What do you notice now that you didn’t
earlier?
Observe
![Page 28: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Where do you think this came from? Why do you think somebody made this? What do you think was happening when this
was made? Who do you think was the audience for this
item? What tool was used to create this? Why do you think this item is important? If someone made this today, what would be
different? What can you learn from examining this?
Reflect
![Page 29: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
What do you wonder about... Who? What? When? Where? Why? How?
Question
![Page 30: Building a Culture of Inquiry Using Primary Sources](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/568145e5550346895db2e4ce/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Help students◦identify questions appropriate for further
investigation◦develop a research strategy for finding
answers
Sample Question: What more do you want to know, and how can you find out?
Further Investigation
