The source shows/states...

Quote directly from source the sentence/characteristic that led you to infer what you did.

This means that...

The source shows/states...

Quote directly from source the sentence/characteristic that led you to infer what you did.

This means that...

Explain how this quote or characteristic applies to what you have infered.

Second Level Inference Question: 1. Inference 2. Purpose Why (keyword) did the author draw this picture? • • •

Infering the purpose of a source Include who made the source Include what is the intended outcome for making such a source

Content, Message, Audience, Outcome (CMAO) Structure: First Inference:

Explanation:

I can infer that _________ made this speech/drew this cartoon in order to ________ (desired outcome).

State who made this source (author) and what was the intended outcome (action) that this source is meant to cause (purpose).

The source shows/states that...

Quote directly from source the sentence/characteristic that led you to infer what you did.

This means that...

to what you have infered. Second Inference:

Explanation:

I can also infer that _________ made this speech/drew this cartoon in order to ________ (desired outcome).

State who made this source (author) and what was the intended outcome (action) that this source is meant to cause (purpose)

The source shows/states that...

Comparison: Important: Type 1:

How are the sources different/similar?

2 similiarity (similar) OR 2 differences (difference)

Type 2:

How different/similar are the sources?

1 similarity, 1 difference (either way)

Example: Study Source A and B. How different are these two sources? Explain your answer. This is a Type 2 question. Therefore, one paragraph is dedicated to writing how different are the sources, and the other paragraph is to writing how similar the sources are. How to write/compare Similarities & Differences? Similarity/Difference #1:

Explanation:

Sources A and B are similar/different in terms of...

State a general overview of the similarity/difference.

Source A tells me that...

What does Source A tell you? Give a more detailed focus on the similarity/difference.

This can be seen from...

Quote directly from source the sentence/characteristic that led you to infer what you did.

Similarly/However, Source B tells me that...

What does Source B tell you? Give a more detailed focus on the similarity/difference.

This can be seen from...

This can be seen from...

This means that Source B...

Quote directly from source the sentence/characteristic that led you to infer what you did.

Reliability: This skill requires you to determine how reliable a source is or how much you can believe what it says about the topic or issue raised. Example: Study Source C. How reliable is this source as evidence about Stalin's Five Year Plans? Study Source D. Do you believe what this source says about the Cuban Missile Crisis? Take note: It is rare to find absolutely reliable sources, if not almost impossible. Therefore, do not simply dismiss a source as unreliable or biased. Instead, exaplain why it is not reliable. What is Enhanced

Reliability?

Scenario: A salesperson for Apple criticizes the MacBook Air. I am more likely to believe the salesperson's statement. Why? He works for Apple, yet he puts down his own product. Just as much as a bias source would lead me to disbelieve a source, a source with Enhanced Reliability would lead me to believe the source. Scenario 2: A Nazi leader speaks badly about the Nazis. This is also another example of a source having Enhanced Reliability. This Nazi Leader, by speaking badly about the Nazis, could have been killed or prosecuted, yet he chooses to speak out. What's more, he is a Nazi himself, yet speaks badly about his own political party. Structure: I believe that Source A is...

State your stand whether the source is reliable or unreliable.

Source A shows/states...

Quote directly from source the sentence/characteristic that led you to infer what you did.

What does the Source suggest?

-

TEST FOR RELIABILTY: Cross Refer to prove Reliability: This is supported/contradicted by Source B

Cross Refer from other Sources to see if other sources compliment or contradict this source. If it compliments, it means that it is likely to be reliable. If it contradicts, means that this source might not be co linear with the truth.

Source B shows/states...

Quote directly from source the sentence/characteristic that led you to infer what you did.

This shows that Source A is reliable/unreliable as it is supported/contradicted by Source B as source B suggests that...

Explain the meaning of this quote or characteristic

Use of Contextual Knowledge to prove Reliability: Based on what I have learnt...

Introduction

Hence, the Source is reliable/unreliable as it does not see eye to eye with my contextual knowledge. Purpose (to secure those final marks) Source A was probably made in order to...

Usefulness: Structure: Source is Useful:

Explanation:

Source A is useful in helping me understand that...

-

Source A states that...

-

This means that...

-

Source has it's Limitations: However, Source A has it's limitations... Source A does not tell me about... which I can gather from Source B.

Cross Refer to other sources.

Source B states/shows...

-

This is not shown/represented in Source A which only shows... Purpose: Source A is most likely to have been... (i.e. Propaganda)...

-

Source A shows that...

-

Still, having such a purpose does not mean that Source A is useless. It is still useful...

-

Assertion: Sources A and B agree while Sources C and D disagrees with the assertion.

Split up the Sources into yes/no, agree/disagree based on the question. There need not be equal number of agree compared to disagreed.

Source A shows that...

-

Source A states/shows that...

Give relevant evidence to support your claim.

However, Source C shows that...

-

Source C states/shows that...

-
