Gina is doing a project on the culture of another country, and she wants to get a first-hand account of what life is like. Which type of source should she use?
Gina should use a primary source to get a first-hand account of what life is like in the other country. Primary sources are original materials or first-hand accounts created by individuals who experienced or witnessed the events or conditions being studied. Examples of primary sources for Gina's project could include interviews with people from the other country, personal narratives or memoirs, diaries, letters, photographs, or audio or video recordings of people discussing their culture and way of life.
