Historical documents – often referred to as primary sources – can be mysteries, but a deeper analysis can reveal information that gives historians new and exciting insights into documents and photographs that represent important historical times and events. Primary sources are the raw materials needed for all historians, but how can a student gather the most meaningful information needed out of these documents? Learn important skills on how to conduct a document analysis and unleash the power of primary sources for your history papers and class reading. This workshop is geared toward history students but will benefit social science and humanities students as well.
