The study examines the means by which historical sources are used in the school teaching of history (all within a historical context), as well as the transformation of student activities associated with these sources of information. It also touches on the state of research aimed at the teaching practice of history within German history didactics, which is the most advanced in this region, in the Czech and Polish milieu. Furthermore, it presents certain findings from the latest empirical investigations of this topic (2011-2014), in which the author either took part or initiated them. The text focuses on the analysis of three questionnaires that inquired about the sources which history teachers use most often in their lessons, information sources used for the selection of specific questions, the frequency of their inclusion and the level of assigned activities, with emphasis on modern media.
