question require me to do?<\/h2>\n<p>taken from the apush website, a short answer question will have you:<\/p>\n<p>1. analyze historians&#8217; interpretations, historical sources, and propositions about history.<br \/>\n2. answer questions that may include texts, images, graphs, or maps.<br \/>\n3. <strong>update for 2017-18<\/strong>: the number of required short answer questions has been reduced to three, and the time allotted has been decreased to 40 minutes. students will choose between two options for the final required short answer question, each one focusing on a different time period.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>question 1 (required): periods 3-8<\/li>\n<li>question 2 (required): periods 3-8<\/li>\n<li>students choose between question 3, periods 1-5, and question 4, periods 6-9<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>think of the short answer as an opportunity for you to do more of the historical thinking work that you have prepared to do.<\/p>\n<h2>can you give me an example of past short

graph \u2013 not what was the most important cause, or the major factor, but what contributed. this opens up a lot of possibilities for you! the graph is showing an exponential increase in immigration to the united states (notice the question isn\u2019t asking for a specific part of the united states \u2013 score!) between 1820 and 1859.<\/p>\n<p>questions (b) and (c) are asking you to explain historical events that resulted from this increase in immigration; again, this is not requiring you to talk about an immediate result or the most significant, but just to explain events that resulted from the change depicted in the graph.<\/p>\n<p>you can do both of these things. let\u2019s see how students responded.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10544\"

identifying that due to the industrial revolution \u201cmore and more factory jobs were available,\u201d causing \u201can influx of immigration.\u201d \u2013 1 point for part (b) \u2013 \u201cthe

\u201cno point was awarded for this response because it incorrectly asserts that a \u201c3% limit applied to immigration\u201d during this period.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>let\u2019s look at another example

what the apush scorers believed; after all, you only have 40 minutes. you need to be efficient in your responses.<\/p>\n<p>they stated the following (again, from the college board website):<\/p>\n<p><strong>(a) 1 point:<\/strong> this well-written response earned a point for identifying increased immigration in the given time period as a result of the potato famine in ireland.<br \/>\n<strong>(b) 1 point:<\/strong> the response earned a point as it connects xenophobia to the fear that \u201cimmigrants would disrupt american culture\u201d thereby leading to the know-nothings.<br \/>\n<strong>(c) 1 point:<\/strong> in spite of the reference to specific examples outside the period, the answer earned a point for noting that increased immigration made for \u201ccheap labor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>my point in showing you these two examples is to demonstrate that <strong>(1) being accurate, (2) writing clearly,<\/strong> and <strong>(3) referencing
