difference between primary and secondary sources.

Indiana Academic Standards and Indicators: 10.1.1 Understand technical vocabulary in subject area reading. Example: While using a word-processing program on the computer, learn new terms and special meanings for words from the manual and online help feature: control, enter, insert, format, font, template, page break, file, and folder. Distinguish between what words mean literally and what they imply, and interpret what words imply. Example: Understand descriptive phrases when reading, such as A mans feet must be planted in his country, but his eyes should survey the world (George Santayana) or We must be the change we wish to see in the world (Gandhi). Extend through original analysis, evaluation, and elaboration ideas presented in primary or secondary sources. Example: Read first-hand accounts and newspaper accounts of an historical event, such as the sinking of the Titanic, and compare them to more recent texts about the event. Explain how voice, persona, and the choice of speaker (narrator) affect the mood, tone, and meaning of text. Apply appropriate interviewing techniques: prepare and ask relevant questions. make notes of responses. use language that conveys maturity, sensitivity, and respect. respond correctly and effectively to questions. demonstrate knowledge of the subject or organization. compile and report responses. evaluate the effectiveness of the interview.
