Hinweis der Redaktion
- The book begins with an in-depth introduction, diving into the five broad topics and a step-by-step skill development guide explaining the different types of multiple choice and free-response questions, and how to answer.
- The different types of multiple choice questions covered in the course are detailed: quantitative, qualitative, visual analysis, comparison and knowledge questions, as well as the four types of free-response questions and the associated rubrics – Concept Application, Quantitative Analysis, SCOTUS Comparison, and the Argument Essay. The introduction in its entirety is 25 pages of practical and applicable information for students and teachers.
- Each unit includes a listing of Enduring Understandings related to content covered in the unit. The enduring understandings mirror those detailed in the College Board Course Framework.
- The goal of the essential question is to stimulate thought, to provoke inquiry, and to spark more questions. By tackling such questions, learners are engaged in uncovering the depth and richness of a topic that might otherwise be obscured by simply covering it.
