(2) Read and summarize the
documents.A system used to assess the credibility of
an AUTHOR

speaker• POV can be determined from evaluating SOAPS.

(3) Consider what else you know
– What do you know about the
time periods indicated in the
Rome and Han? Are you
familiar with any of the people?

(4) Organize your ideas

isn’t only ONE way) • This is referred to as “grouping the
documents”

• Do NOT use:
–“I” “They” “We” “You” “Us” “Stuff”
–“The document says…” repeatedly • eg: using docs & POV : Ms. Mulet, the
senior class sponsor, seems to believe
that making a profit is the purpose of the homecoming dance (doc. 5). Asclass sponsor, she is especiallyconcerned that the debt be taken careof since she is ultimately responsiblefor the club finances.

• You are not to just summarize the
documents.• No quotes – explain and analyze
•
You are to use the documents tosupport the thesis.
• This will require you to use the
analysis you have already begun in
your chart and analyzing the source.
8/3/2019 APWH DBQ 2011
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/apwh-dbq-2011 14/30
• You MUST have at least 2 documents
in each grouping• No more than 3 groups

Ryan Mole caught a touchdown pass on the lastplay of the 4th quarter giving Lamar a 14-10victory.

•Throughout the day I spoke to the followingpeople in an attempt to obtain the truth. As
I review each source I must constantly ask

expertise in the area of high school
football.”
