ESSAY: Where to collect marks
(Teachers should demonstrate to learners on skills pertaining to Developing and sustaining
line of argument – it is very important)
• Essay questions require learners to take a stance and to develop a relevant and
coherent line of argument.
• The line of argument must be supported with relevant historical evidence, that is
organised and connected chronologically to the question posed.
• Good essay writing involves structure, and this should be emphasised to learners.
• The essay must have a relevant introduction, a coherent and convincing body of
evidence and a compelling conclusion for example:
• Should contain all the relevant factual material/content and should be explicitly linked
to the line of argument.
• Should be well structured in a chronological and coherent manner, displaying good
HISTORY
synthesis of information.
• Give examples to reinforce the stance taken
• Learners should round off the argument by reverting to the question posed.
In many cases this will consist of restating the main line of argument
Learners should ensure that they understand the following skills
• Do you agree with the above statement ( I agree/Disagree with….
• To what extent( To a large or lesser extent. Support your answer)
• Critically discuss: (Look at both sides, negative positive and draw your conclusion)
N.B. Content knowledge will always play key role in answering these questions
Which types of essays to collect marks
• Low flyers can score marks on essays that pose a question: ‘’Do you agree with the
statement given’’
• They should possess some content knowledge regarding the topic asked
• China’s economic policies of Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution failed to take
2
the country forward. Do you agree with the statement above?
https://tvetpapers.co.za
https://ultradeep.co.za

mainly China’s economic policies
WAYFORWARD

sent to schools to be used as part of training and revision
