Summary of Evidence Format and Citations

Part B: Summary of Evidence – 6 marks Marks Level descriptor  0 There is no relevant factual material.  1–2 There is some relevant factual material but it has not been referenced.  3–4 There is relevant factual material that shows evidence of research, organization and referencing.  5–6 The factual material is all relevant to the investigation and it has been well researched, organized and correctly referenced.

Format and Recommendations:  Key to this section is to set down your evidence clearly  This section must be organized and referenced correctly  References: CMS, every bullet should have a footnote  You should organize this in bullet points (numbered/lettered) either thematically or chronologically (most of you are thematic)  This should NOT include any analysis…just straight facts  words (closer to 600)  Include info that is relevant to your question  3-4 categories (your counterargument examples will be placed into one of your categories depending on the topic) you should not have a separate counter argument category

Chicago Manuscript Style:  On-line Access (temporary account) OR ask for a book   Login: amundsen  Password: history  The Quick Guide is nice, use NOTES and BIBLIOGRAPHY  Examples  1 st time source is used  2 nd time source is used  Reference/Bibliography/Works Cited use

Footnotes…so much fun! In your Summary of Evidence this is easy. EVERY bullet point will include a footnote. In your Analysis this will be more difficult. Every quotation NEEDS a footnote, every idea that is not yours NEEDS a footnote, and information that you paraphrase NEEDS a footnote! I tend to over-cite…but better safe… Let’s try one for fun…open up a Word document

Example…  “It was Danton at his best, but also at his impulsive worst. He was sinking deeper into violence himself.”  Book: The Giant of the French Revolution: Danton a Life  Author: David Lawday  Publishing: Grove Press, New York, 2009  Page: 133   Put this into a 1 st time footnote, 2 nd time footnote and a Works Cited footnote  If you were to quote this author two times in a row you could use Ibid

Check your answer… 1 st time 1. David Lawday, The Giant of the French Revolution: Danton a Life (New York: Grove Press, 2009), nd time 2. Lawday, The Giant of the French Revolution, 133. Works Cited Lawday, David. The Giant of the French Revolution: Danton a Life. New York: Grove Press
