  • Demonstrate an understanding that History shares with English a narrative tradition that relies on the written word to tell its story by evaluating documents
  • Discuss and appraise the influence of multiple factors or "causes" in an historical event or development
  • Recognize and evaluate the influence of contin- gency or chance in an historical event or develop- ment
  • Compare, contrast and evaluate the influence or role of actions or inaction in determiningan outcome in an historical event or development
  • Considering History's multidiscipline nature, describe and appraise the role that "environment" (physical, social, cultural, technological and economic, etc.) may play in an historical event or development
  • Critique and evaluate an historical event or development as a study of human activity and conclude how it informs us about human nature
  • Analyze and evaluate an historical event or development that demonstrates the fact that at times we cannot have absolute certainty about what happened in the past
