Scholarly reviews of online primary source archives, including teaching potential

Eight guides by leading world history scholars to analyzing primary sources: music, images, objects, maps, newspapers, travel narratives, official documents, and personal accounts

Eight multimedia case studies model strategies for interpreting particular types of primary sources (music, images, objects, maps, newspapers, travel narratives, official documents, personal accounts) and placing them in historical context

Sixteen case studies, written by high school and college teachers, discuss the planning and implementation involved in teaching a particular primary source
