The Basics of Historical Research is for teachers, students, beginning

practical advice and learn the basic steps for gathering the information

enrichment, research article, History Day, a classroom based assessment
(CBA), or personal historical interest.


This class will cover:

·       What primary sources are—and aren’t

·       What historical sources are—and how to use them

·       How to use the library system

·       How to use archival collections

·       How to find and use reliable online resources

·       How to properly cite your sources
