What is the primary educational and analytical objective of the 'Source Method' in history teaching within Social Studies education?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Correct Option: B
The primary objective of the Source Method in history teaching is not to mold students into passive listeners, but rather into novice historians.
- Students examine and critically analyze primary sources (such as inscriptions, coins, old documents, artifacts) and secondary sources.
- This process fosters logical thinking, evaluation of evidence, and the development of higher-order mental skills to draw independent conclusions.
Therefore, option (b) is the scientifically and pedagogically correct answer in child development and teaching methodology.
