4 What is it?

5 “ …In Part B students are asked to answer a question that deals with continuity and change over time, covering at least one of the periods in the concept outline. Students will have 40 minutes to answer this question, 5 minutes of which should be spent planning and / or outlining the answer. -- AP Central, The AP World History Exam

6 What is it? “ …This question focuses on large global issues such as technology, trade, culture, migrations, or biological developments. It covers at least one of the periods in the course outline and one or more cultural areas.” -- AP Students, About the Exam

7 How is it graded ? Know the rubric !

8 The Thesis If you don ’ t have a thesis or you have a really bad one it could cost you THREE points. * This is the DBQ Rubric, but expectations of thesis statement are the same.

9 0 Thesis : same as DBQ ; the global issue is the topic 0 Evidence : include three pieces of evidence ( facts, dates, names ) to prove your thesis. 0 These must be discussed and / or analyzed in order to count.

10 THINK : 0 What happened in the world that made this happen? 0 Include something outside of the region. 0 How / why was this a change? 0 What happened? 0 What was the process that led to change and how / why did some things STAY THE SAME?
