I always wondered what outcomes could have been different if the historical issues were resolved in a different manner?

Example: Had the British allowed for colonial representation in the House of Commons and repealed many of the new taxes, would there have been a War of Independence from 1776-1783?
Here is a short whimsical video called; Tea, Taxes, and The American Revolution: Crash Course. The first 8 minutes of the 11 minute video, quickly and comically cover the British laws and taxes that impacted the colonists.

Start Activity

Students will analyze the causes of the American Revolution and examine them from various points of view. Perspectives include the Sons of Liberty, loyalists living in the colonies, patriots, and British citizens living in England.
https://www.docsteach.org/activities/student/road-to-revolution-patriotism-or-treason
Suggested Teaching Instructions

Use this activity at the beginning of a unit on the American Revolution when introducing or reviewing the causes of the war and the various opinions represented during the writing of the Declaration of Independence. For grades 6-8.

Before beginning the activity, review the title of the document and explain that this image depicts the tarring and feathering of a tax collector. Explain what is meant by "tarring and feathering" to provide context to the image if this is students' first exposure to the expression.

This activity is a great introduction to a more in depth analysis activity such as a debate among patriots, loyalists, and undecided colonists over the Lee Resolution and/or the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

Understanding how school discipline policies can contribute to the school-to-prison pipeline is essential for educators and families. Harsh punishments, automatic out-of-class time and police involvement for discipline can push young people out of classrooms and into the criminal legal system.

Columbus, Georgia; lived and worked in Washington, DC, 1891-1978), an American artist and educator known for her signature painting style using bright colors and patterns inspired by nature. She became a full-time artist late in her life. Born in a time of horses and buggies, she lived through big advancements in technology, such as the space race and moon landing. Her art was inspired by the nature she saw outside her home studio, and awe for the exploration of our vast universe.

The face of an inquiry may be the compelling question, but the strength of an inquiry and its questions is grounded in sources.

Recently, I read social science researchers are way too weird. WEIRD stands for Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic.

However, WEIRD subjects are, well, weird themselves - scholars suggest that this [...]

Internet History Sourcebooks Project

[2023]

Welcome to The Internet History Sourcebooks Project, a collection of public domain and copy-permitted historical texts presented cleanly (without advertising or excessive layout) for educational use. Primary sources are available here mainly for use in high-school and university/college courses. From the outset the site took a very broad view of the sources that should be available to students and as well as documents long associated with a "western civilization" approach to history also provides much information on Byzantine, Islamic, Jewish, Indian, East Asian, and African history. You will also find many documents especially relevant to women's history and LGBT studies.

Search engines such as Google now deliver many users directly to relevant documents, but the various Index pages are the key to the best use of this site. You can access the major divisions of the site from the subject indexes at the top of each page. Within each major division the left panel on each page directs you to more focused indexes. Any given document may be listed in several indexes.

The IHSP is both very large and fairly old in Internet terms. At the time it was begun (1996), it was not clear that web sites and the documents made available there would often turn out to be ephemeral. The index pages therefore contained links to the thousands of documents available at this Fordham University website alongside links to documents at other websites. As a result of a process called "link rot" (where a broken link results from someone having taken down a web page) this means some links no longer worked. An effort has been made to repair or remove bad links. If you come across one, though, you will often be able to find archived versions of such documents by using the Wayback Machine [www.archive.org].

This site at Fordham can now be searched via the Search box at the top of each page.

I am always happy to hear from people who wish to submit copy permitted texts to the various sites below.

The Internet History Sourcebooks

Internet Ancient History Sourcebook
A "classroom usable" sourcebook of copy-permitted material for Ancient history and civilization courses.

Internet Medieval Sourcebook
This is an online sourcebook of copy-permitted, although not necessarily copyright-free, source material for Medieval Studies. It is the largest online resource of medieval and Byzantine textual sources.

Internet Modern History Sourcebook
Now with almost as many online texts as the Medieval Sourcebook, this also constitutes a "classroom usable" sourcebook of copy-permitted material for Modern European history and Modern Civilization courses. North American and Latin American documents are located within its structure.

SUBSIDIARY SOURCEBOOKS
The following consist of thematically based subsets of texts, with some additional documents and links, of the three main Source-books listed above.
SOURCEBOOK THEMES
The following consist of thematically based subsets of texts entirely taken from the three main Sourcebooks listed above, along with documents from the subsidiary source-books

Travelers' Accounts
Traveler's accounts of their journeys and the lands they visit are important sources in understanding the past. As outsiders, travelers often note aspects of a culture that are too commonplace for local commentators to mention. More than this, travelers often provide some insight into how their own society understood itself in relation to other cultures.

Slavery in World Cultures
Slavery has been a cross-cultural social and legal insititution in many human societies. Throughout the Internet History Sourcebooks Project, there are a number of primary source documents related to slavery and this page brings them together.

Legal History:
Laws and formal prescriptions or codes of behavior are some of the commonest types of primary source documents.

Course Web Sites by Paul Halsall
Various course websites which reflect the use of IHSP documents.

The Site Concept and Design: created 26 Jan 1996: latest revision 30 April 2026 [ Internet History Sourcebooks Project is located at the History Department of Fordham University, New York. The Internet Medieval Sourcebook, and other medieval components of the project, are located at the Paul Halsall CV] Fordham University Center for Medieval Studies.The IHSP recognizes the contribution of Fordham University, the Fordham University History Department, and the Fordham Center for Medieval Studies in providing web space and server support for the project. The IHSP is a project independent of Fordham University. Although the IHSP seeks to follow all applicable copyright law, Fordham University is not the institutional owner, and is not liable as the result of any legal action.
