A Tale of Three Lenses: Revealing the Stories of Primary Sources Through Questioning

Conference Session, June 16
In partnership with Teaching with Primary Sources Eastern Region
Event is part of TPS Eastern Region Conference

See below for the powerpoint from today’s session. 

How do our (literal and metaphorical) lenses shape the stories we tell? Discover a dynamic model for student-driven inquiry that combines The Question Formulation Technique (QFT) with the Library of Congress (TPS) Primary Source Analysis Tool. Participants will learn the model through applying it themselves to investigate the stories of three different photographers documenting Japanese-American internment during World War II.

Presenters:

Melissa Lawson, Folsom Middle School, National History Day Master Teacher

Sarah Westbrook, Right Question Institute

Ann Canning, TPS Eastern Region
