TYPES OF ESSAY QUESTIONS

TYPES OF ESSAY QUESTIONS Knowing what you are being asked to answer in a question helps you to model your response. CHANGE: Here you are being asked to show how something has changed. While this is a comparison question, you are to describe a change. Reflect on how things were and how and why they have changed. You must include evidence, explain the significance of your evidence and how it supports your claim. COMPARISON: Here you are being asked to make a comparison. Compare people, ideas, events, environments, interactions or whatever the question is asking. Be certain to provide evidence, its significance and explain how your evidence supports your claim. DESCRIPTION: Here you are being asked to describe something or things. You are to provide facts, describe each fact in detail and its overall relevance to the topic you have been asked to discuss. CONNECTION: This is generally an “educated opinion” question. You are connecting what you have learned in the chapter and evaluating it. Remember to back your opinion with solid evidence and to explain how you made that “connection”. Note that your Margin Question + Big Picture question types are the same!
