ABOUT THIS WEBINAR
Join A-Level History expert examiner Keith Milne for an opportunity to really develop your exam technique and skills that will ensure progression to the higher levels of the mark scheme for 2O. There will be a particular focus on extending performance on the sources question related to Germany. We will consider exactly what the demands of assessing value are and how you can ensure that you are analysing the full range of provenance set in the attribution. Crucially, we will detail what examiners look for in assessing the depth of evaluation. We will consider tips on avoiding the more general commentary about tone and provenance and look at what the higher-level responses look like in the past on this paper. A secondary focus will be the qualities of an outstanding essay and especially what an essay on Weimar and Nazi Germany really should cover on this unit.WEBINAR BENEFITS
