Section C:Evaluation of sources
General Points
For this section you must ensure that you choose two sources which are actually relevant to your investigation. You'd be surprised how many students choose sources that are not relevant to their investigation and then in this section say that the source was not relevant. This does not get any extra credit. It is also a good idea to use two different types of sources in terms of media or perhaps one primary and one secondary source. Above all else, you must ensure that your sources are analysed using Origin, Purpose, Value, and Limitations with Value and Limitations explicitly referring to Origin and Purpose. This is a good section to score highly in. Here is more:
