Salem Witch Trial Analysis
When looking at the causes of the Salem Witch trial, one must be careful to examine the factual evidence rather than the seemingly true accusations of the Puritans. Our class watched videos and looked at maps, speeches and testimonies, and charts in order to construct ideas on what caused the Crisis, and then reflect upon our ending conclusions using evidence from the documents. This is most certainly inquiry thinking because it combines document analysis with being able to support a conclusion with primary research.
