4. My Opinion:
The key to success for our students on the AP exam and life in general:
Students must not simply see themselves as a bystander to events of
the past. They must be active participants in seeing the past as a
gateway to the future.
As an instructor, do you want to beâŚ.

the guide on the side?
6. The Promise and Challenge of Advanced PlacementÂŽ
âThe America that our high schools need to prepare them for is not
yesterdayâs, but tomorrowâs. Itâs time to ensure that all of our graduates
leave with the skills and knowledge they need for college and career.
Their futures, and Americaâs, are depending on it.â
â Kati Haycock, CEO of The Education Trust
âCollege Board
7. ⢠While AP has grown dramatically
(over 4x in 10 years), students,
particularly those from
disadvantaged circumstances, are
not passing.
⢠Low pass rates diminish studentsâ
ability to get college credit,
reduce debt, and improve
placement in higher education.
8. Discuss the results of your most recently-released AP Exam Scores:
⢠What did you do last year that worked?
⢠What will you do differently this year?
What are some new strategies that you will implement this school year?
9. Preparing Students for
Success:
⢠Scaffolded instruction
⢠High-quality primary
sources
⢠Guided Inquiry
⢠Multiple practice
opportunities
The AP Advantage:
⢠Right level of subject depth
and text complexity

26. A Classroom for Shared Inquiry
Teach students to be critical thinkers through a
unique questioning strategy supporting close
reading of complex texts.
ďź informational text
ďź close reading strategies
ďź writing to sources
ďź critical thinking
ďź appropriate text complexity
ďź text dependent questions and tasks
27. ďź Participants must read the selection carefully before the
discussion.
ďź The goal of the group is to discuss the ideas in the text and
explore them fully.
ďź Participants should support interpretations of the text with
evidence from the work.
ďź Everyone needs to listen carefully to the other participants
and respond to them directly.
ďź The leader is there to ask questions rather than offer his/her
own interpretations of the text.
Five key guidelines to engaging in a successful Inquiry discussion:
28.
29. Free Response Questions:
1. Read the question carefully.
2. Pay close attention to the prompt you are given.
3. Donât be afraid to annotate and highlight the text.
4. Circle key vocabulary.
30. The prompt vocabulary will tell you exactly what to do in your essay. Some
common prompts are:
1. Evaluate or judge â discuss the value or wisdom of a belief or idea
2. Analyze â evaluate each part of the whole systematically
3. Identify â name something, typically members of a group
4. Define â explain what something means
5. Discuss â provide details and examples of something
6. Describe â create a picture of something with details and examples
7. Compare and contrast â point out similarities and differences
8. Categorize â sort into groups based on traits or features
9. Explain â tell how and why with reasons and examples
10. Determine cause and effect â decide what leads to an event/circumstance and
what results from this event/circumstance
31. â˘Read the question carefully, 2-3 times.Circle all the action words that tell you what to do and underline the words that
go with
them.
â˘Decide how many parts the answer will need.
â˘Restate the question in your own words.
â˘Go back and skim the passage to find facts and details related to the question.
Read these areas carefully. Underline the facts and details. Mark them with an âORâ
for open response.
â˘âEchoâ the question in your answer.
â˘Answer every part of the question.
â˘Support your answer with lots of details from the story. Use specific names of
characters and places.
Strategies for Open Response Writing
Reread the question and your answer. Make sure you answered the
question that was asked. All of the information in your answer must
come from the reading, not in what you know about the topic.
32. Document Based Questions
Most useful things you can do to ensure a high score on the DBQ:
⢠Practice answering past exam DBQs
⢠Learn from others' mistakes. On the AP website, there is a section that
explains what people did right and wrong on a past exam's DBQ.
⢠Find out what the readers are wanting
⢠Answer all parts of the question
