Exam Philosophy Memorization is important! The more detail you can give in your answers, the better. You’ll get top marks if you can tell me where you’re getting your ideas. From one of my lectures? From one of our books? But overall: I care about how well you understand big, interdisciplinary themes and concepts. I also care about how well you use the skills this class teaches. Those include: primary source analysis, interdisciplinary methodology, mapping, etc.

Exam Structure PART I: MULTIPLE CHOICE: ~15 min. Answer all 7 questions. Find the right definitions for important terms in your lectures/readings. Most questions have 3 options. PART II: SHORT ANSWER: ~30 min. Answer 3 of 5 questions. Explain key concepts Approximately one paragraph per answer. PART III: LONG ANSWER: ~75 min. Answer 1 of 2 questions. Give as much detail as possible. Question 1 will have you fill in a map. Question 2 will have you explore a primary source.

What/How To Study Climate change reconstructions (graphs) Try creating your own! Climate change timeline I’ll add more dates. Consider making your own timelines. Notes on your books Find specific examples of relationships between climate change and history. Consider listing them. Key terms Find them in your lecture and reading/podcast notes. Consider making a list with short definitions.

Good luck on your exam!
