This is the week that all participants will have an opportunity in class to have a Zoom conversation in a break-out room with an assigned classmate. During that 20-minute time slot, you will be sharing ideas for adding to each other's Network Album and asking questions about how the album's primary sources can be used in a community of learners.
You have found many unique primary sources during this Leadership course, and your comments on our Canvas Discussion Board indicate that you searched both loc.gov and tpsteachersnetwork.org successfully. This week, we ask you to review your album description and the teacher notes section that is included in every primary source. If you have not already filled in some of these sections, add some specific inquiry questions and match your primary sources with one of the TPS inquiry strategies that you have experienced in class or earlier.
As you review the album created by your assigned peer review partner, we encourage you to share these observations about their album:
- One gem or outstanding primary source included in this album.
- One question you have about the album.
- One opportunity for adding to this album.
Thank you for this close read of primary sources and deep dive into the archives at loc.gov and this Network.
