By the end of the semester I know that in order to do history, one must have an ethno-historical methodology in order to determine history from all aspects. This way of thinking balances two different approaches, using written records, primary sources and oral accounts of history. Being able to put yourself into the lives of the ones in the time period is an important aspect of finding the secrets of history. Once one has completed the research and taken many different sources into account, the next step is to develop an opinion of the findings of the research. When studying history, there are many different opinions and sides to every story. This semester has forced me to broaden my horizons when it comes to research and develop a strong and educated opinion.
