Historical inquiry · Part 2 of 3
6 exam-style questions with model answers, plus 8 quick multi-choice questions — every question on this part of the standard, grouped by the 2 pages of notes they come from.
Write a full answer before you reveal the model one. That comparison is where the learning happens.
Explain how you would find, select and record sources for your inquiry.
Explain in depth why the number of sources matters less than their independence, and how to judge independence.
Comprehensively examine what it means to 'select' evidence, and why selection is itself part of what is assessed.
Explain what an annotation must contain, and write one for a source of your choice.
Explain in depth why 'useful for X, not useful for Y' is a better annotation than a verdict on reliability, and what each half contributes.
Comprehensively examine what cross-referencing can and cannot establish, and how a student should handle a disagreement they cannot resolve.
