Make different question types explicit
| Task | Thinking to practise |
|---|---|
| Explain a cause | Show a link between a factor and an outcome |
| Evaluate a source | Consider content, origin and relevant knowledge |
| Judge significance | Choose criteria and support your judgement with evidence |
Create a clear framework
Start with the exact wording
Identify the period, topic and command word. Agree the boundaries of the task before exploring wider details.
Separate evidence from inference
State what the source directly shows, then explain what you infer and why. Discuss uncertainty when the evidence has limits.
Use an agreed lesson outline
Make space for questions and deeper interests while keeping the current goal visible. Agree how to move between activities.
Frequently asked questions
Can a tutor explain why two historians disagree?
Yes. Compare the evidence, questions and interpretations involved. The aim is to understand how a view is justified, rather than assume disagreement means there is no useful answer.
Can I send questions before the lesson?
Ask your tutor about advance questions or written prompts. These may make discussion more comfortable, but the arrangement should suit both of you.
