Primary Sources:
My first primary source will be my own experiences which have been created through my family. There are many aspects where an obvious generational gap has caused conflict throughout my household. I will use these examples to show how I can relate to my topic.
Next I will use my classroom experiences to refer to my project. Older teachers tend to expect their students to learn in forms they were used to although that may not be the easiest option for modern day students.
