PT4 (May2022) : How do historians and human scientists give knowledge…

- - - - What do they do?
        
        narrative
        
        investigation
        
        prediction
      - What aspects/sources they look upon to justify their claim?
        
        observation
        
        past events
        
        social/ psychological pattern
  - - - What medium do we use?
        
        face to face
        
        social media
        
        third party
      - What is the purpose of telling?
        
        for non-experts to grasp an idea or concept
        
        to learn from mistakes and be better in the future
        
        for entertainment
    - - weaving pieces of info together to create a timeline of when, how and why each instance happened
- - - - The story could be told from one's country perspective and help the reader understand what THAT particular country went through, or from a different country's perspective
        
        e.g: USA which joined the World War II due to their own sets of reasons
      - Creating a timeline is also important to the narration of a history
        
        e.g: Conflict first started (1920 or the WWII) which lead to bigger problems (Hitler's dictatorship, Nazis, Discrimination against Jews) which then led to resistance - Protests, etc. THE CLIMAX - the WWII (1935-1945), other character were also introduced (USA) and finally the solution was presented as END OF WAR
      - The narration can also highlight the troubles and problems of countries and its background, context, conflicts and other important info to make the reader understand or make sense of all the decisions/actions made by leader/government/authoritarian and all the other things like protests, climax, solution, etc.
    - - It may be presented in the form of a narrative/story from the writers point of view.
        
        "History is always written by the winners" - Winston Churchill
- - - - For example, research describing a disease (COVID-19 or stress). Through an analysis, topics can be discussed in depth and more details can be included in the study but no matter how detailed experts explained something it is possible people would not care about it because they cannot really understand what is being said in the study.
    - - For example, having a consultation with a doctor or lecture in class. Analogies may be used to make people understand what is being said. Nevertheless, the knowledge will also be simplified and the actual thing to be conveyed may not be understood
    - - For example, mass media about pandemics like COVID 19. Mass media can be divided into two types: online broadcasting and printing
        
        Printings (graphical article, digital poster)
        
        This method provides a quick summary of information for individuals to skim and remember. However, it should be noted that just by providing a person with brief pieces of knowledge and information, the person won't be able to make sense of it at all.
        
        Online broadcast (news, livestream, social media)
        
        The media allows for timely interventions by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO), enabling a rapid and widespread reach of public health communications.
