Students will find more documents in our recommended resources and can also consider film sources as interpretations of these events in relation to the documents by following the links to British Public Information films and British Pathé. We hope that the documents will offer students a chance to develop their powers of evaluation and analysis and enrich their understanding of this topic.Īlternatively, teachers could use the Cold War website alongside this collection for specific questions or activities connected to these documents. Another idea would be to challenge students to use the documents to substantiate or dispute points made in the introduction with this collection. Teachers may wish to use the collection to develop their own resources or encourage students to ‘curate’ their own ‘exhibition’ of the most significant sources on the topic. Students could work with a group of sources or single source on a certain aspect. The purpose of this document collection is to allow students and teachers to develop their own questions and lines of historical enquiry on the Cold War. However, we have upgraded the quality of the images, shown more of the original document in some cases and included additional sources from The National Archives exhibition: Britain’s Cold War revealed: Protect and Survive, April-November 2019.
The majority of the sources in this themed collection have been taken from our Cold War web resource with which many users of the Education Website will be familiar.
