Which section came up last year out of the 3?

Ww1 has come up for 2 years in a row
A lot of my teachers predict it will also be Women's Suffrage too, the two other topics have come up thrice but Women only once.

I don't mind that topic along with liberal reforms, but Home Front I'm not confident in at all!

Wait what are changes? Votes for woman us my favourite :smile:
Found some useful youtube videos covering the basic of all three topics, I think they're pretty good

Liberal reforms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8nspB6saLc

Home Front: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcTH1zJ3qRA

Women suffrage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWsfNyBZebY

Home front topic came up last year, my history teacher told me. So it's unlikely it'll come up this year thankfully, but still a possibility

I have the 2014 paper and it's soooo difficult, even while using the text book and attempting the sources, the content isn't there

Hi :smile:

The exam is next Wednesday, who else is doing it?
I've got a week to revise for this one so not too much stress, except there is a lot to learn!

how would you answer the big 16 marker at the end? our teachers never explained to us about it just it had more depth to it whatever that means?


Our teacher gave us a sheet about the 16 mark question, hope it helps a bit:

Plan your answer
consider the "body of evidence" across all of the sources (although you are not expected to refer to them all in your answer)

-must focus on how far the evidence in the sources support/oppose the statement

-group supporting/opposing statements together (do not just go through every source saying if it agrees or disagrees!)

-offer a "summary judgement" in the introduction giving a direct answer to the question and listing the sources you will be using to support/oppose the statement.

-Give other factors not in sources to support/oppose statement

- make links between evidence

-put sources in context and use own knowledge to evaluate the sources
