Synthesizing Sources: The Costume Dilemma

Miacademy & MiaPrep Learning Channel

This educational video uses a relatable narrative about finding a theater costume to teach students the importance of researching and synthesizing information from multiple sources. The host, Justin, shares his initial failure to find a Mozart costume at a thrift store because he lacked specific knowledge about the era. He then observes a text message conversation between two friends, Liz and Rachel, who are successfully researching 1960s fashion for a different play.
