What is a Document Based Question?
Models the work of a historian: Responding to a historical problem based on
interpreting primary documents…essentially a research paper
– Technically demanding• But requires little/no historical knowledge
– DBQs often ask to connect a seemingly unrelated idea to the topic of the documents
– DBQs often are based on topics that may be unfamiliar

Whosoever in China, in this era of sensual pleasures, serves the Buddha and correctly
observes the commandments, who recites the Buddhist Scriptures, and who furthermore makes a vow to be reborn without ever abandoning his sincere intention, will at the end of his life, when
his soul passes away, be miraculously transported thither. He will behold the Buddha
and be enlightened in his spirit, and then he will enter Nirvana.

Answer the Question?Write an Essay
THE BASICS…remember - a research paper
Thesis statement Use all the sources Explain how sources support thesis
![Page 11: Bellringer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070417/56815303550346895dc12581/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Thesis
Restate location & time period boundaries Write a strong statement of 1-3 sentences in your
intro that lays out your central argument & 2-3 controlling ideas– Should directly answer the question asked
![Page 12: Bellringer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070417/56815303550346895dc12581/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Addressing Docs
Must use every document at least once Must demonstrate understanding
– Paraphrase rather than quote– Use individually
Cite your sources– “According to _______ …”
• author’s name or title– Parenthetical citation: (doc #).
• Do not start sentence with “In document 1…”
![Page 13: Bellringer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070417/56815303550346895dc12581/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Support
Good historical writing requires analysis– Explain how a document supports your thesis– Connect information in doc to thesis– How does the source help prove your answer?
Should have analysis EVERY time a doc is used
![Page 14: Bellringer](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070417/56815303550346895dc12581/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Implied: Grouping
Place the documents into at least 2 groups or categories – national origin, topic, social class of author, pro/con
This is largely solved with a strong organization around a strong thesis– Each body paragraph is likely a group
– Do not have to specifically state “The ____ group can be seen in documents #,#,#.”
• Types of groupings can be mixed if it helps answer the question
– Every group must have at least 2 docs, but docs can be used in more than group

Thesis: infrastructure/practical technologies
While both the Romans and the Han appreciated the use of technology toward the improvements of water regulation, the Romans concentrated more intently on mathematical and scientific advancements, looking down upon the laboring tool inventions that were appreciated by the Han.

Thesis: infrastructure/practical technologies
Technologies that involve infrastructure tended to be viewed positively by Romans and Chinese alike. On the other hand practical technologies that benefitted commoners had more complex views; Chinese viewed these positively, and Romans viewed them negatively.

Body Paragraph
Technologies that involve infrastructure tended to be viewed positively by Romans and Chinese alike (Documents 1, 6, 8). There was a request from a Chinese official to have more employees to maintain the technologies (Doc. 1). Because there was a desire to maintain the canal it shows that the Chinese value the technologies they already possessed, they wanted to keep them around longer.** Plutarch reports that Roman political leaders considered all details of roads when it came to their construction (D. 6). With his meticulous planning, this shows that it would be an asset to citizens in Rome, for example, including tightly packed roads and lesser intervals in roads. Plutarch likely exaggerates the accomplishments of a Roman official because of his own background in government.
