social studies

• structure for Q7:

  Point--> ´copy´ qn

  Explain --> what does it means + examples

  Elaborate --> examples

  Link --> link back to qn < how >
• evaluation qn

  • need to explain both POVs and supported by valid source use
  • both agree and disagree explained (at least 2 for both)
  • dont use background info as source

  must follow:

  1. identify requirements from assertion that will determine your perspective (agree or disagree)
  2. unpack requirements for further reasoning
  3. identify sources to support POV
  4. use source to craft a reason in response to the assertion <CANNOT CAHNGE CLAIM>
  5. support analysis with evi and clear explanation< CANNOT LIFT OR PARAPHRASE>
  6. do it 4 more times :´)
• evaluation qn

  must add extensions!!

  • think on your own
  • add something related but not in the sources given
  • new and original for each para
  • basically write bullshit but still related
• inference

  • how the qn look like?

  > what does the source tell you about __?

  > what can you infer from the source about--?

  > what is the message of the source?

  • how to write?

  > statement -> focus on the qn and answer directly ( dont use anything from source)

  > evidence -> valid info from source to support msg, quote

  > explanation -> explain how evi support msg

  > link -> thus, __

  • 1 para
• comparison

  • 1 similar + 1 difference

  > how similar/ different are these sources?

  > how far are sources X and Y similar/ different?

  > how far do source X and Y disagree about __?

  > how far do you think the author of the source X would agree with the author of source Y?

  • 2 similar / 2 difference

  > how are sources X and Y similar/different?

  > in what ways are the sources similar/ different?

  • 2 para
• comparison

  • how to make a good comparison?

  1. read + understand both sources
  2. identify common things between sources
  3. establish similarity and differences
  4. write in PEEL format

  • how to write?

  > comparison statement -> both sources are similar/different in stating that ___

  > evidence + explanation -> source X state that "__". this means __. similarly, source Y states that "__". this means __

  > link -> since __

  • ensure that both points you raised are on the same thing
  • ensure that after quoting the source, explain how each quote addresses the criterion
• inference with purpose

  • how does it look like?

  > why was this source written/published/drawn?

  > what is the motive of __?

  > what is the author trying to achieve?

  • key component of a purpose ans

  > action word

  > who is the audience

  > message

  > outcome

  • phrase your ans as a reason
  • context includes what is happening before the source is published and why this is occurring
  • 1 para
• inference with purpose

  • how to write?

  > ans the qn : the source was written/ published/ drawn to__

  > action word + audience : writer´s intention

  > message : dont take from source

  > impact : to achieve what? what is the intended outcome?

  > evidence/ explanation : what does the source state? (quote)

  > context : at this point in time, what was happening? before seeing the source, what is the audience thinking?

  > change in mindset : after seeing the source, what has changed?
• inference with purpose

  • format : source was published to convince (audience) that (message) so that (audience) will (outcome)

  : sources are saying that __ convinces (audience) to do __ on their own accord by changing what they think

  • possible action words : positive -> reassure

  -> convince

  -> persuade

  : negative -> criticise

  -> warn

  -> blame
• proving

  • prove : since source __ supports source __, it enhances the reliability of source __ and helps to prove that ___
  • dont prove : since source ___ supports source__, it enhances the reliability of source __ and helps disprove that___
  • important points to remember:

  1. dont ever change the claim
  2. only change your "prove" or "dont prove"
  3. reason must match
  4. for conclusion, need cross reference and support stand
• proving

  • format : source_ prove/dont prove because (reason- take from source), this is evident in "__". this means that (explain - how does source show reason). thus, source _ prove/dont prove (claim)

  : my stand can be supported by source _ as it also says/does not say that (claim) becasue (reason - form source) this is evident in saying "__". This means that (explain- how does evidence show reason). Since source _ supports source _, it enhances the reliability of source _ and helps show that (claim)
