MDA gives you a simple 3-step approach so you can extract information, develop a contextual understanding, and assess sources as historical evidence. Individual lessons provide guided examples for every type of primary and secondary source, including letters, speeches, memoirs, charts, photographs, poetry, textbooks, fiction, political cartoons, newspapers, and more.
