Learn the idea

A source has an author, date, purpose and context. A primary source can still be partial or mistaken; primary means direct to the event or evidence, not automatically true. In an argument, distinguish a conclusion, a premise and a missing assumption.

Worked example

A fictional town report says attendance rose after a new bus route. That sequence alone does not prove the route caused the rise: school hours or enrolment may also have changed.

  1. Identify source and purpose.
  2. Separate observation from causal claim.
  3. Ask what alternative evidence would discriminate.
