Statement of Background Narrate or explain the key events in your case. Provide information so that your audience will understand. Proposition State the position you are taking and indicate the direction your argument will proceed. Proof This is the heart of the argument. Discuss the reasons for your position and cite evidence for support. Refutation Anticipate and refute opposing views. This strengthens your argument and demonstrates your thorough knowledge of the issue. Conclusion Summarize your most important points.

APUSH Writing the Document-Based Question (DBQ) The APUSH exam format includes one document-based question. Students will have 55 minutes to answer it. Guidelines Long-essay writing skills. The initial mystery of answering a DBQ largely disappears if you remember that it builds on the skills for writing the long-essay question, including the skills of developing a background statement (B), thesis that ?takes a position (TAP)? and has a ?roadmap (R)?; argumentation supported with relevant historical evidence; use of targeted historical thinking skills; contextualization, and synthesis. The basic difference between the long-essay question and a DBQ is that in the DBQ students must analyze and use documents in your supporting arguments.

Conditional Statements Conditional Statement: (p(q): If you like to sprint, then you are on the Track & Field team. Converse: (q(p): If you are on the Track & Field team, then you like to sprint. Inverse (~p(~q): If you do not like to sprint, then you are not on the Track & Field team. Contrapositive (~q(~p): If you are not on the Track & Field team, then you do not like to sprint. Biconditional (p(q): If you like to sprint, if and only if you are on the Track & Field team. The biconditional statement is false. It is false because the conditional statement is false. A person could like to sprint, but that does not mean that they are on the Track & Field team.
