HI Questions

I want to invite you to leave any question whether it is general or if it is specific as we can learn from each other. I will check it daily and give feedback. Feel free to give feedback as well espcially if you are doing the same or similar topics.

Summary of Evidence: Hints
  • Make sure you run it through the filter of "Does this explicitly answer the question?"
  • Organize it on topic rather than source.
  • You can put it in bullet form but the final will need to be in paragraph form
  • You can summarize people's view rather than put in lengthy quotes
  • Leave the historiography for the analysis
  • Make sure it is properly refernced. (Cannot accept it without proper refernces)

Analysis: Hints

  • Outline different points that need to be analyzed
  • Make sure to reference the two sources in analysis
  • "An awareness of the significance to the investigation of the sources evaluated in section C" This is part of the IB rubric. You will need to make this known by talking about how much this informaiton can be trusted and/or the value of the interpretation to answering the question.
  • You should analyze the multiple interpretations/apporaches historians have on your exact topic.

Conclusion:

  • This is where you briefly state you answer to the question and why you came up with it.
  • Be blunt and direct here
  • Do not introduce any new evidence but make sure to be clear on why you reached that conclusion.
