Document-Based Question Activities

Sep 3, 2020 | By Brett Unruh

I honestly expected a lot more in terms of depth and detail. In many ways the documents are simply there with supporting questions. They are fine, but they don't lead to anything bigger. Unfortunately, I think DBQs have to lead to something and help students build a larger understanding of the topic. This unfortunately stops short of that. I was also very disappointed to see the Ben Franklin 1754 snake image included with the American Revolution. It is propaganda from the French and Indian War and is used out of context.

A+

I'm a new teacher and started the year without even knowing what a DBQ really was, but knew they were super important. I started using these books first with my honors students and then with all hours. The books give me a lot of options, some days I use a whole DBQ, other days just one doc page for quick analysis, or just the essay question. Great resource, thank you!

I'm pleased with this download. These were helpful to me for remote learning. They are an appropriate amount of information to discuss. They may be too simplistic or "easy" for upper level or APUSH students, but were a perfect challenge for my standard USH students.
