    This document outlines four key concepts for analyzing historical events: causation, comparison, continuity and change over time (CCOT), and contextualization. For causation, multiple short-term and long-term cause-and-effect relationships should be explained along with their overall influence. Comparison involves analyzing the similarities and differences between historical subjects and determining the most important ones. CCOT requires explaining both the changes and continuities in a subject over time and why they occurred. Contextualization means demonstrating how an event/idea influences and fits within its given time period.

    Causation

    Explain multiple cause and effect


    relationships, both short and long
    term. Why do these cause/effects
    exist? What is there overall
    influence?
    Comparison
    Explain how similar and how
    different historical subjects are.
    Why do these similarities/
    differences exist? Which are the
    most important?
    Continuity and
    Change Over Time
    (CCOT)
    Explain how a subject has evolved
    over time AND why both changes
    and continuities took place.
    Contextualization
    Explain how an
    event/idea influences
    AND fits into a given
    time-period.
    CONTEXT MATTERS!
