Using documents and other primary data: developing the skills necessary to analyze point of view and context, and to understand and interpret information
In my AP world history class, I have been exposed to documents and DBQs that I have had to analyze in order to interpret and understand the documents message. I would learn and see in the documents into the bigger picture or concept. I would always just summarize the documents rather than analyzing the source and their reasons for stating a certain point. In one of my first essay's that I wrote in the begging of the year of my world history class was not well developed and the documents that I put were only summarized and not enough analyzing and information on why that opinion was given or how it came to be.I should have supported my claim by providing evidence and examples of why that was the main topic the writer was explaining. If you have a good argument that is backed up by well proposed evidence then your essay will run much smoother and the reader will comprehend your message and the history much better. This is a skill I worked on throughout the year to better my essay's and organize them as well.
