PART I (5 points)
Write one paragraph (5-7 sentences) about the differences between Primary Sources and Secondary Sources. Â Your paragraph should also include what the importance of both sources is and where you can find these sources.
PART II (5 points)
Here is a list of five sources and a description of each source. Indicate whether the source is a Primary Source or a Secondary Source. If the source is a Secondary Source you also have an added task of telling me whether or not it is Scholarly or Non-Scholarly (these terms are clearly defined in the Writing Assignment Lecture – Primary and Secondary Sources). Â If you would like to search the internet for the source and find out more information I cannot stop you from doing so, but everything you need to determine is here.
Primary Source or Secondary Source?
