The student will learn about the process of modern historical inquiry and gain a better understanding of the diverse resources that historians use to conduct research. The first four units will focus on research methodology and examine how and why historians conduct research on the past. Later units will examine how different historical resources can be used for historical research. By the end of the course, the student will have become familiar with a variety of physical and electronic resources available for historical research. This free course may be completed online at any time. See course site for detailed overview and learning outcomes.
