COMPARING THE DBQ

ESSAY WITH THE

THEMATIC ESSAY

LIKE THE THEMATIC ESSAY, THE D.B.Q. ESSAY IS PART OF THE NEW YORK STATE ASSESSMENT FOR GLOBAL HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY. IT TOO REQUIRES THE STUDENT TO KNOW A LOT ABOUT ONE THEME OR TOPIC. UNLIKE THE THEMATIC ESSAY, HOWEVER, THE D.B.Q. ASKS THE STUDENT TO ANALYZE, INTERPRET AND THEN INCORPORATE DOCUMENTS WITHIN THE ESSAY. MORE THAN ANYTHING, THE DBQ REQUIRES A FORMALIZED OR PROCEDURAL METHOD IN WRITING. HERE ARE SOME STRATEGIES I USE WITH MY STUDENTS OF GLOBAL HISTORY AND AP EUROPEAN HISTORY WHEN COMPLETING A DBQ:
