sources. The context of information presented in a source is helpful in classifying information.

subjected to evaluation or assessment. These report discoveries, sharing of information and first-hand.

usually evaluations of primary sources. These are also information written by authors who do not

and/or disciplines.

Examples: commentaries critiques evaluations history Journals/magazines (not portraying information


from eyewitnesses)
