The five Cs are context, change over time, causality, complexity, and contingency.

• Context involves examining the circumstances surrounding an event to grasp its meaning.
• Change over time follows the transformation of beliefs and structures throughout history.
• Causality analyses the chain of causes and effects that shaped outcomes.
• Complexity reminds us that real history resists neat narratives.
• Contingency highlights that outcomes were not inevitable and depended on specific conditions.

Applying the five Cs lets learners think like professional historians.

Historians examine who created a source, when, why, and for whom before trusting its information.

Most tutors teach a clear framework for source evaluation:

• Origin: What is the author's background, and when did they write it?
• Purpose: What did the author hope to achieve with this document?
• Content: Which details appear, and which are missing?
• Reliability: Can we trust this account, or might the author have reasons to distort the truth?

No single source tells the whole story, which is why triangulation matters.
