Primary Source Overviews

Create a page-long overview including basic information about specific artifacts. Information may include:
  • “Author’s Point of View”
  • “Resource Overview"
  • "What Do You See?”
  • “Thinking about the Picture” (e.g., suggestions for seeking more information, links, other resources, provide assignments for working with the resource)
  • “Using Your Imagination” (e.g., Ask questions like “What would happen if…? “Would it be better if…?” and offer suggested strategies for answering the questions such as creating a timeline)

Basically, provide detailed educator-friendly data about given artifacts in a primary source set. Note, this idea is based on the EduPress sets titled "Exploring Primary Sources."
