THE 6 SOURCES THAT YOU WILL USE MUST BE PEER-REVIEWED other key points : address the historiography (literature review) of the topic of your choosing. The easiest way to achieve this is to compare and contrast sources. Identify various interpretations, methodologies, and approaches. Highlight debates and disagreements on specific topics or facts/events. Keep in mind that sometimes, the content of a source is just as important as the interpretation being put forward. A historiographical (literature review) exploration will reveal your knowledge of the literature on a topic and your ability to evaluate sources. How do various authors perceive a particular topic? What are the controversial aspects or issues of a topic? Is there agreement among scholars on a particular topic?

You will find that there are differing interpretations of issues and events, and a good essay will show awareness of these. You may argue whatever you position you like, as long as you can back your arguments with reasonable and credible evidence. Please note that the key to good research is to be as exhaustive and critical as possible. Selecting a few random sources off the shelf will not be productive. Good research requires skill. It will take time and effort to locate and read the best research possible.
