Module 2 Short Responses – Question 1 What types of primary and secondary sources will you need to use to support the topic you are examining in your essay? You don't need the actual sources yet, but you should have an idea of what they might be (such as an eyewitness account of an event, for example). Primary and secondary sources should be accurate, reliable, and relevant for my chosen topic of the Cherokee Removal Act. Types of primary sources that could provide information for my historical analysis include written sources created during the time of the Cherokee removal such as letters, speeches, newspaper articles, and government and legal documents. Additionally, first-hand accounts from Cherokee people who experienced the removal process may also be of significance. Presidential addresses, along with Supreme court rulings, laws, and policies, could also contribute to my analysis. Secondary sources are not first-hand accounts and therefore created from the author's interpretations and analyses of primary sources. Secondary sources that contribute relevant information regarding the Cherokee removal include scholarly books, academic journal articles, and newspaper articles that analyze or review the removal of the Indians. Again, ensuring the sources are credible is paramount for developing a strong analysis. Module 2 Short Responses – Question 2 What are two or three keywords you could use to look for sources to answer this question? When researching sources relevant to the provided question, I recommend using keywords such as Irish immigrants, Irish emigrants, or Brooklyn Bridge development. Module 2 Short Responses – Question 3 What subject terms can you use to continue your search? From the article, I could continue my search by using subject terms such as "WORK environment", "tunnels", "publicity", "LABOR unions", or "CONSTRUCTION industry". Module 2 Short Responses – Question 4 When you search for "construction," you get a lot of extraneous answers. What [?]Boolean operators[/?] and corresponding search terms could you use to narrow your search?
The Boolean operators and search terms that would allow my search to be more specific could be "sandhogs" AND "1907", "sandhogs" AND "construction" AND "New York City", or "sandhogs" AND "tunnels".
