Which of the following situations describes a historian using a primary source to learn about u.s president George Washington

kherson [118]

Maybe while we wait for the questioner to provide the options, we can do a little general discussion here about what it means to use a primary source. Primary sources are things that come from persons directly involved in the events or lives being studied. So, any diary entries or letters of George Washington himself would count as primary sources. So would any official proclamations or letters or government documents that came from Washington's pen as president. Or the testimony of contemporaries of his who lived or worked with him would also count as primary source accounts.

So if you're looking for a historian's use of primary sources, look for the ways in which he's using historical material directly connected to the life of the person being studied. In fact, if you were able to look at a set of the false teeth George Washington wore, that would be a primary source too. They have a set at the Mount Vernon home/museum. And by looking at those actual dentures, you'd see they weren't made out of wood like the old (false) story says!

Using Article 26 from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, summarize then analyze the article in light of what you know of

schepotkina [342]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

We can help you with the following comments so you can elaborate on your own ideas.

(1) Everyone has the right to education. Education shall be free, at least in the elementary and fundamental stages. Elementary education shall be compulsory. Technical and professional education shall be made generally available and higher education shall be equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.

This is a privilege in democratic governments such as the US, Canada, or México. In this las country, this right goes beyond what you have in the United States.

In México, there is a public education system that is free for Mexicans! Yes, including the college level. Public institutions such as the National University(UNAM) or the National Polytech Institute(IPN), offer graduate programs for minimum costs at the beginning of each semester. The amounts for inscription and semester vary from $30 to USD 100!!!!

And it is quality education granted by the Mexican Constitution because each of the 32 states in Mexico has at least one state university that offers the same free education service.

(2) Education shall be directed to the full development of the human personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. It shall promote understanding, tolerance, and friendship among all nations, racial or religious groups, and shall further the activities of the United Nations for the maintenance of peace.

On the other hand, there are countries in places such as North Korea, where education is dictated by the state, and students only earn the subjects that are approved by the state. As North Korea is a dictatorship, the educational system does not allow people to have contact with other forms of thinking.

These kinds of countries, instead of teaching people to think on their own, they tried to indoctrinate people to only follow the principles that control them.

(3) Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children.

And this is correct in free and democratic countries, although it is not the case in other such as the above-mentioned case of North Korea. Other good examples are Cuba and Venezuela, where education can be good (indeed, it is said that Cuba has good colleges) however, the education system belongs to the state, serve the interest of the state, and limit diversity and critical thinking of its students.
