Part A feedback Intro – clearly pose RQ, establish scope, present two sources and explain relevancy Vague statements make Ms. Bruggeman cry inside…. The author was born in 1930 which is valuable since they grew up during WWII The content is valuable because it covers a number of perspectives The purpose was to educate the reader so it is valuable in increasing knowledge Since the source is secondary, it inherently limits the legitimacy of the source Too much summary not enough analysis Take analysis deeper! Don’t just say “what” limited the source – explain exactly HOW and WHY that makes it limited. BAD: Since the Fireside Chat is meant to promote programs/instill confidence, it limits the source. BETTER: The purpose of this Fireside Chat was to instill confidence in the American populace which limits the source because it is used to promote the programs and is positive in nature; therefore, it does not address problems that remain unsolved. Analysis needs to be specific to YOUR investigation. Remember, you are asked to analyze OPCVL for historians studying your topic. EX on IA regarding U.S. failure to join the LofN: The content of this source is limited because it does not address Germany and the USSR’s failures to join the League. This source is valuable because it goes into detail about the effects of the League. Word count issues! You are responsible for figuring out what to cut/add….not me!
