What you’ll learn to do: examine how historical accounts are understood and constructed from various perspectives and sources
In this course, you’ll do more than just receive information or read about things that happened in the past. History is about much more than this—it’s about thinking critically about the past, about people, and their relationships with the world and with others. In this course, you’ll learn how to think like a historian, and how to analyze sources from various perspectives in order to piece together an argument. In this section, you’ll start to think like a historian by learning about sources—how to read them and how to cite them.
