AP WORLD HISTORY Continuity and Change Over Time Essays A CCOT question is similar to a comparative one, the key difference being instead of comparing between two places during the same time, one is comparing between two times, often in the same place. The structure for a CCOT thesis is simpler than for a comparative thesis, but shares the following elements: 1. It is clear ? it clearly responds to the question and is on topic. 2. It is comprehensive ? it addresses the whole prompt, and 3. It is analytical ? it establishes clear categories of ?continuity? versus ?change?. Compositionally, a CCOT essay is simpler than that of a comparative essay. Your overall structure will look something like this: I. Thesis that identifies continuities versus changes
