WWI DBQ Issues

Miss Buffalino

Intro

Can not use any of the AP’s historical context.

First sentence should define WWI or explain it.

Thesis needs to have the date and the 3 groupings.

CONTENT

Stop with the fluff! Stick to chronological order. Your groupings need to make sense and

there needs to be a common thread. GET TO THE POINT.

Groupings

You can have two in a group, you can have four in a group, YOU CAN’T HAVE ONE ALONE IN A GROUP!

Silly Things

Military is not the same as militarism BIASED, many of you had poor grammar

Document Citations

The reader should not have to look back at the document.

– The alliance system was a major cause of WWI (Document A). The alliance map portrayed is from the perspective of a modern day cartographer. The map is biased because it does not include all of the countries that truly fought in WWI.

YOU CAN ONLY CITE ONE DOCUMENT AT A TIME.

– Some people did (Documents 1, 2, 3, 4) You can not repeat documents. YOU MUST USE ALL DOCUMENTS.

Missing Voice

Can not be anywhere in the DBQ 3 DIFFERENT MISSING VOICES Must be relevant

– Women for their input on militarism makes no sense.

EXPLAIN WHY THE SOURCE IS NEEDED
