Abstract
Many scholarly frameworks have been proposed by academics to help students identify a meaningful and realistic research problem. In this paper we explore the ways that different types of source influence researchers’ perception of a subject. We find that students who are encouraged to look at their subject through multiple types of source, such as contemporary media, official records and personal recollection, reach a deeper and more complex understanding than if they had used only one or two types of source.
Keywords: sources; archives; financial records; memoirs; journals; perspective; objectivity; case method
