Summary:
"Waring, author of a forthcoming TCP book on technology integration in social studies, pairs that book with this one to provide a means for teachers to implement the SOURCES framework in classrooms. SOURCES is an acronym that identifies how social studies classes can integrate and evaluate primary sources using a variety of research tools-Scrutinize the fundamental source; Organize thoughts; Understand the context; Read between the lines; Corroborate and refute; Establish a plausible narrative; Summarize final thoughts. Per the author, "! will outline a clearly delineated step-by-step process of how to progress through the seven stages of the SOURCES Framework for teaching with sources, provide anecdotal comments, examples, and explicit scaffolding, such as sources analysis sheets for various types of primary and secondary sources, flowcharts, and other resources to allow students to succeed throughout the SOURCES inquiry framework." Significantly, Waring demonstrates how this work can become integrated in other disciplinary areas, such as mathematics, science, and the arts. The intention is to provide a grounded means for conducting higher-order reasoning and inquiry"-- Provided by publisher.
