Historical Investigation Questions

How is your HI going? I have a couple of ideas to either get you going or to un-stick your research.

#1- Put the paper aside and just research. Pull pieces of evidence from a wide a source base as you can. Spend most of your time dong this as you can now read with a critical eye rather than throwing together stuff that sounds good for the deadline. Once you have a good list well beyond what you need for the summary of evidence. Now pair down and keep only the best.

#2- Once you have a solid or improved summary evidence, go ahead and begin the analysis anew given that trying to revise it might be harder. When I went for my National Boards I revised a paper over and over instead of rewriting it. It received the lowest score of my my four papers.

#3- If you scored a twenty or over do not mess with it. But remember that does not guarantee what your final score so you will want to make some changes. DO A LITTLE AT A TIME.

Please post your questions and ideas here. Also if you have a request for a certain type of post please let me know. Good Luck. I hope you are enjoying your summer.
