Synopsis
In this activity, students will learn about and practice identifying sources as "primary sources" and "secondary sources." Students use a primary and a secondary source to explore climate-change-driven human migration. By exploring both data and first-hand accounts, students learn the value of using the two kinds of sources to better understand a problem.
