2. GCSE HISTORY (OCR MODERN WORLD: SPEC B)
STRUCTURE OF THE EXAM QUESTIONS
PAPER ONE: International Relations and America Depth Study
KNOWLEDGE QUESTIONS
(a) Describe (4 marks) i.e. What happened, What were the aims...
You just need to give 4 different points to get four marks OR give two points and add in extra detail.
 One paragraph is enough.
(b) Explain (6 marks) OR (8 marks) i.e. Explain why Britain and France followed Appeasement.
These are sometimes worth 6 marks and sometimes worth 8 marks but you do the same thing.
You need to explain three things (three PEEL paragraphs).
Be careful not to just explain what happened – you need to make sure you link back to the question. Use detail, why does each point matter?
 This should be between ½ and ¾ of a page.
(c) Evaluate [Reach a judgment] (10 marks) i.e. How far do you agree that….
There are two different types of question you might get here:
Straightforward ‘How far’ question.
You need 4 sections to answer it:
A brief introduction (a couple of sentences) which outlines what the question asked you.
On the one hand… (explain, in as much detail as possible all the evidence that you can think of to support the statement. Don’t just list it or describe what happened, explain it.)
On the other hand… (explain, in as much detail as possible all the evidence that you can think of to challenge the statement.)
Your conclusion. Explain your view in detail. You need to make a judgement here. Think about how you could categorise the evidence to make a judgement. Explain exactly what you mean as clearly as possible.
Question asking you to weigh up the importance of different events or factors.
This question will give you a list of factors /events and ask you how far you think they are of equal importance. You need to set this out slightly differently.
Start with your introduction exactly as before.
However, then you need a paragraph on each of the different factors / events.
Your conclusion will need to make a judgement just as before. You should really try not just to say that one is more important, but show how all the factors / events link together and impact upon each other.
MESSAGE OF THE SOURCE
Source Question (7 marks) What is the message of the source?
You need to include three sections here:
The message of the source is…. [make sure you give the actual message and don’t just describe the source]
I can tell this because… [how the content of the source supports this – give 3 or 4 points.]
At the time… [what was going on at the time the cartoon was published and this links to its message?]

3. Why was this poster published?
You will have to answer different source questions. There is no way of knowing exactly which types of questions will come up but there are lots of usual suspects. This is a brief guide on how to approach these questions.
Why was this poster published?
This is extremely similar to the ‘What is the message of the source?’ You approach it in exactly the same way.
You need to include three sections:
Start by answering the question... [make sure you give purpose of the source and don’t just give its message or just describe it.]
I can tell this because… [how the content of the source supports its purpose– give 3 or 4 points.]
At the time… [what was going on at the time, why was it published at this specific time?]
Does this source prove…
KEY POINT TO REMEMBER: Can one source really ever prove anything? (No!)
With this type of question you need to think about the content of the source and how it matches up with your own knowledge of the topic.
There will always be strengths and weaknesses
Your knowledge should support the strengths and point out the weaknesses.
It should also be used to point out any other important points that the source doesn’t make.
Are you surprised…
KEY POINT TO REMEMBER: Always say why you are surprised AND why you are not surprised.
Think about this type of question like a ‘How far’ question.
Your answer needs to have two sides. You should never be very surprised!
How far does this source explain…
KEY POINT TO REMEMBER: Can one source really ever explain everything? (No!)
Here you again need to think about the content of the source and how it can be used to explain the issue in the question.
Because it is a ‘how far’ question you need to have two sides so don’t forget to also use your own knowledge to explain important points not in the source.
How useful is this source?
KEY POINT TO REMEMBER: Always say why it is useful AND why it is not.
Again, think about this type of question like a ‘How far’ question.
Use the content of the source and your knowledge of the topic to explain both strengths and limitations of the source.
GENERAL SOURCE TIPS
Look at the exact date of the source first and who wrote it – what was going on at that time?
Always think - why has the source been made?
Don’t faff around – make the first sentence of your work answers the exact question that has been asked.
You must use your knowledge of what was going on at the time (in detail) to answer the question
You must also use precise details from the source to answer the question (i.e. a quotation or refer to a specific bit of the picture.)
With most source questions you must look at both sides of the argument before coming to a conclusion.
It sounds obvious but read the question carefully – do exactly what is asked. To make sure that your answer is relevant it’s a good idea to keep referring back to the question.
