The Summary of Sources

 (Source 1 Explorers and discoverers- Christopher Minster)

1| SS ED 122- SOURCE-BASED STUDY 1

 This source stated that the explorers discovered new places and new trade routes, and
these explorers made many significant discoveries. These explorers are Christopher
Columbus, and he was known as the greatest of the new world explorers (1492). Ferdinand
Magellan is the Portuguese explorer known as the first circumnavigator, and he is also known
as the explorer who discovered the Philippines. Juan Sebastian Elcano, who was the first to
make it around the world and live to tell the tale, took over command of the expedition after
Magellan died. Vasco Nuñez de Balboa was a Spanish conquistador, explorer, and adventurer
best remembered for his early explorations of the area now known as Panama from 1511 and
1519. And Amerigo Vespucci, the man who named America.

 (Source 2 Magellan’s Circumnavigation of the Earth- Dany Anthony)

In this source, it states the journey of the Magellan Expedition. The discoveries of new
places and routes by Magellan. As the first Europeans to see the island of the Philippines,
Magellan’s crew laid the groundwork for the long Spanish colonization of the archipelago,
which lasted until 1898. Magellan befriended the local ruler, Raja Humabon. Magellan went
to war against the ruler Lapu Lapu on Mactan Island, who refused to bring tribute for Raja
Humabon and the King of Spain, and Magellan was killed in the battle of Mactan. Despite
Magellan's role in the first circumnavigation, survivors criticized him, while Juan Elcano,
who completed the journey, received a hero's welcome and was honored in Spain. Elcano
added "first to circumnavigate me" to his coat of arms, and the expedition is now known as
the Magellan-Elcano expedition.

 (Source 3 Magellan got the credit, but this man was the first to sail the world- Pablo Emilio
Perez Mallaina)
Juan Sabastian Elcano completed the first known circumnavigation of the globe in
September 1522. Elcano completed the first known circumnavigation of the world, a total
journey of 45,000 miles marked by hunger, scurvy, murder, and mutiny. Charles V, the king
of Spain and Holy Roman emperor, duly praised and rewarded the captain who had so
heroically completed the voyage. Nevertheless, outside Spain, Elcano’s name has been much
less known. His feat is often popularly attributed to Magellan.
 (Source 4 The Philippines through the centuries – Antonio M. Molina)
The document reveals several insights not just in the character of the Philippines during
pre colonial period, but also on how the fresh eyes of the European regard a deeply unfamiliar
terrain, environment, people and culture. -Published after Pigafetta returned to Italy. -Antonio
Pigafetta wrote his firsthand observation.

  (Source 5 Magellan’s Interpreter, Enrique, was the first to circumnavigate the world-
Penelope V. Flores)

According to Flores, she stated that Enrique, Magellan's slave interpreter, is suggested to
have played a crucial role in the voyages of discovery. If Enrique indeed accompanied Magellan
throughout and returned to the Visayan Islands, including Cebu, then some argue that Enrique
could be considered the first to circumnavigate the world.

BASIS IN WRITING YOUR “MY REPORT”:

Accounts
Students understand that accounts of past events are written to answer specific inquiries, and
reflect the focus and points of view of their authors.

5| SS ED 122- SOURCE-BASED STUDY 1

Chronology
Students recognize the importance of developing a sense of period and are able to construct a
chronological framework of historical periods to situate new knowledge within its proper
historical context.
Empathy
Students appreciate the value of taking on the perspectives of historical actors, and recognize
the need to become familiar with the latter’s ideas, values, beliefs and attitudes as a means of
making sense of the past events they study.
Evidence
Students are aware that historical sources must be understood within their historical context,
and that they become evidence only if they have been judged to be useful in verifying,
supporting, or substantiating the claims historians make about the past they are studying.
Cause and Effect
Students recognize there are multiple short-term and long-term causes and consequences and
a need to recognize their complex interrelationships. The consequences of events and actions
should be evaluated to establish a hierarchy of causes. There is a need to understand the
interplay between actions of historical actors and the conditions at the time.
Change and Continuity
Students understand that some historical developments show a continuation over time while
others clearly exhibit a break with the past. The varying pace and direction in change as
events progress over time have to be analyzed and turning points, if any, need to be
identified. There is also a need to use criteria to define periods of history in the areas of study.
Diversity
The differing experiences, perspectives and interpretations of people who lived through
historical periods or who write about them based on research all add to the rich diversity of
viewpoints. The perspectives of historical actors at the various stages of a historical
development are best understood by considering their historical context, or the conditions that
faced them at the time.
Significance
A historical event or personality is historically significant as it resulted in a change in a larger
historical development. The event or the decisions and actions of the historical personality
had deep consequences for many people, states and organizations over a long period of time.
The study of event or personality also might help shed light on current issues.
