Is the history exam you have tomorrow source based? If so, do you know how to/or where I can find how to answer the 'why was this source produced at this time' and 'how far do you agree with this interpretation' questions please?

Yeah it is source-based. For the 'Why was this source produced in (certain year)?' [6 marks] we learnt the structure :
C-content (what is in the source? What does it say?) C-context (in the year they have given you what was happening? how does it relate to the source) O- origin (who created the source?where was it created?) P- purpose (why was it created? inform/persuade/entertain/boost morale) R-reliability (depending on who created it, is it trustworthy?) A- audience (who was it aimed towards? women/unemployed/youth)

For the 'how far do you agree with this interpretation?[10 marks]':
1. Look at the interpretation they have given you then label each of the 3 evidences to whether the support or go against the interpretation they have given 2. For the answer write 3 paragraphs (first the evidence/s which support, then the evidence/s the go against) 3. Each paragraph should include: C- content C- context O- origin P- purpose R- reliablity I- interpretation (is it objective/subjective?)

This is for the American West paper, but the same rules should apply for each source exam for the interpretation. Our teacher, which is an examiner, has said to get 5/10, say what each of the interpretations mean. For 8/10, you do that and explain why each of the 3 differ with their provenance and purpose. For around 10/10 you do them both and write a little conclusion to answer the question.
