The Source Detective Challenge is an interactive learning resource designed for students to engage in investigating historical sources. Students work in teams to assess the credibility and relevance of both primary and secondary sources in order to solve a historical mystery. The resource provides definitions and examples of primary and secondary sources, along with evaluation tips. It introduces the CARRDS evaluation framework, which guides students in determining the context, authority, relevance, reliability, date, and source type of historical materials. The challenge includes collaborative decision-making roles, warm-up activities to sort sources, and structured discussions to enhance analytical skills. By the end of the activity, students will have gained confidence in evaluating historical sources and developed strategies for future research projects.
