This document provides tips for writing a successful DBQ (document-based question) essay. It recommends including an introductory paragraph with a thesis statement and overview of sub-topics. Two or more body paragraphs should be used to analyze documents and outside information relevant to each sub-topic, and reference documents in an APPARTS format. The conclusion should restate the thesis and discuss broader historical context. Overall, it likens a strong DBQ to a tasty hamburger with intro, body, and conclusion paragraphs as the bun and meat.

PROMPT
How and why do the authors of the two primary sources differ or relate to each other in their views of African American political participation and voting in the 1880s? Furthermore, if so, what does this reveal about American society and politics in the 1880s?
Both the authors of the Report of the Select Committee and Philip Bruce believed that the future of American democracy depended on whether or not African Americans participated in the political process. Their agreement ended there. What does the contrast between these two perspectives reveal about America in the 1880s?
Note that this question does not ask you to evaluate which of the two documents you agree with, nor does it ask you to evaluate whether either document is reliable or biased. Both documents are reliable sources of evidence about what their authors thought at the time, and both authors have biases and underlying assumptions. Your task is to explain how these two contrasting perspectives— with two very different sets of underlying assumptions—emerged from the same historical context in the 1870s and 1880s.
HISTORY PAPER ORGANIZATION
Your paper must include an introduction, several distinctbody paragraphs, and a conclusion.
Your introduction should not begin with an overly broad, general statement, but instead should introduce the specific time, place, and topic you are writing about. Do not assume that your reader knows anything about the history you are describing. Your introduction provides necessary context for the reader that informs your paper of how the issue that you will discuss in your thesis came to be. Good historical introductions do not need catchy hooks or buzzwords. You should really be introducing the reader to the historical causes of your thesis. Also, please be mindful that for this class, you should not be using footnotes in the introduction, as you have nothing to prove until you have revealed your thesis. The last sentence or sentences of you introduction must be your thesis. Your thesis must directly answer the prompt and also provide groupings of evidence that will previe.
Lets Get It Started!1. Review your thesis, your classmates f.docxjesssueann
Let's Get It Started!
1. Review your thesis, your classmates' feedback, my feedback from the Thesis Discussion Forum. Revise your thesis as needed. Create a new document in whatever software you use (I strongly urge you to use Word to maintain formatting integrity when saving files). Create your MLA heading and type your thesis into the document. The thesis will be the last sentence of the introduction (sometimes two sentences), but you can add more at the beginning of the introduction later. Right just get a good thesis into your new document.
**Note my peers did not give me comments. As i submitted late my previous work.
2. Open your Annotated Bibliography document. You may want to work on the two documents side by side. Or, you can just switch between documents.
3. Look back at the thesis reasons, the "whys." Then look at your quotes. Which quotes support which reason? You will want argument and evidence sources to support your reasons. Those should make up the majority of your quotes. Strive for 1-2 quotes for each reason. Hence you may have have several paragraphs per reason. You may also have have quotes that provide background information. You'll want to include those right at the beginning of your paper after the introduction. There will be more on this later. Right now, we're just getting started. Think of that song!
4. Find eight quotes that best prove your thesis/support your reasons. Before you copy and paste, FIRST Keep in mind that your research essay will probably follow a format very similar to the following:
Introduction Paragraph--Last Sentence Thesis.
First Body Paragraph ONLY IF NEEDED---Background information Quote.
Body Paragraph--First Reason. Provide Quote.
Body Paragraph--First Reason. Provide Quote.
Body Paragraph--Second Reason. Provide Quote.
And so forth.
Conclusion.
HENCE: Consider the order of the quotes. Of course not all topics will fit this format exactly, but this should give you an idea of where to copy and paste your quotes.
FIND YOUR EIGHT QUOTES AND COPY/PASTE THEM INTO YOUR DOCUMENT WITH THE THESIS--This is now becoming your RESEARCH ESSAY.
5. Create Signal Phrases to go at the beginning of each quote. Before each quote write Author Name in "Name of Article" discusses/writes/explains/states/etc. "Insert Quote" (30). Yours would look like this John Smith in "The African Blood Diamond" states "the industry is bigger than most people imagine." Since no page number was given in the article, I did not need to include a parenthetical since I already gave the author name and the name of the article in the sentence. If a page number is given in your sources, do include, but if not, you can skip as long as you do the signal phrase.
6. Write a couple of sentences to go in front of the thesis. If you've got something good, write it now. If not, just plainly and clearly introduce your topic. Do not write questions like "Have you ever.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
