HISTORY FORENSIC S

Historian’s Questions 1.What do you know? 2.How do you know it? 3.What is your evidence?

Sources Sources fall into two categories: Primary sources Firsthand evidence of historical events. Materials such as diaries, manuscripts, photographs, maps, artifacts, audio and video recordings, oral histories, postcards, and posters. Secondary sources Evidence that comes after the event. Secondary sources, such as textbooks and biographies, synthesize and interpret primary materials.

Documents Many things can be used as historical documents: Diary entriesPolitical Cartoons PhotographsAudio recordings SpeechesFilms Newspaper ArticlesEditorials ArtworkLegal documents

DBQ Using “evidence” from historical documents to answer questions. These kinds of questions are called Document Based Questions…or DBQs. To answer a DBQ, we need to “extract” the evidence from the documents.

APPARTS is an acronym for 7 steps that we will use when analyzing documents.

A = Author Who created the document? If it is a piece of writing, who wrote it? If it is a photograph, who took the picture? If it is a painting, who made it? If it is a legal document, who issued it?

A = Author P = Place and Time Where and when was the source produced? Essential in determining if it is a primary or secondary source.

A = Author P = Place and Time P = Prior Knowledge What do you already know that would further your understanding of this source? Don’t sell yourself short, you might know more than you realize. Do you know anything about the author? The events being described? The time period when it was created?

A = Author P = Place and Time P = Prior Knowledge A = Audience For whom was the source created? Was this document intended for the public or was it private? If it is something for the public (such as a speech or essay) than who would be seeing or hearing it? Knowing who the intended audience was can help you to determine the reliability of the source.

APPARTS A = Author P = Place and Time P = Prior Knowledge A = Audience R = Reason Why was this source produced at the time it was produced?

A = Author P = Place and Time P = Prior Knowledge A = Audience R = Reason T = The Main Idea What is the source trying to convey?

A = Author P = Place and Time P = Prior Knowledge A = Audience R = Reason T = The Main Idea S = Significance Why is this source important?
