  1. The Silk Road CCOT Adapted from the 2009 AP World History Exam

  2. Acceptable Thesis (1 pt) • Restate the prompt • Address both continuity AND change • Provide analysis of the continuity and change • Can be more than one sentence, but must be consecutive to make it flow

  3. Address All Parts of Question (2 pts) • Two points for this – you MUST address BOTH continuities and changes • “Rule of Three” minimum • Only need one continuity and one change for today • Continuities must exist at the beginning and end of the ENTIRE time period (200 B.C.E. to 1450 B.C.E) • Changes are things that are different during the time period • Specific changes – NOT what is happening at beginning, middle, and end of time period

  4. Substantiate Thesis with Appropriate Historical Evidence (2 pts) • Must support either a change or continuity and connect with prompt (Silk Road) • Must be historically accurate • Need to have AT LEAST eight pieces of evidence • Does not have to be balanced evenly between continuities and changes, but should have some for both • For today’s essay I will only require FOUR pieces for full credit

  5. Uses Relevant World Historical Context to Explain Change or Continuity (1 pt) • Need to place changes in the larger world context and identify what GLOBAL events brought about changes • The “big picture” things that are happening in the world at the time period and how they contributed to the changes • Think about APWH Key Concepts • Also discuss how continuities persist despite these global forces that bring about change

  6. Analyzes the Process of Continuity and Change Over Time (1 pt) • This is where you explain the reasons WHY the changes and continuities happened • CAUSATION!!!  What caused these continuities and changes to occur? • Why did a change occur and how did it impact the particular region?

  7. CCOT Formula • Paragraph one: • Thesis • Time period, region, global issue, continuities and changes (two each) • Could also include the World Historical Context here – what are the big picture things happening across the regions specified during that time period? • Paragraph Two: • Addresses first part of thesis (either the continuities or changes) • Tell the story of what stayed the same or what changed • Need to support with historically accurate evidence • Paragraph Three: • Addresses second part of the thesis (either continuities or changes) • Tell the story of what stayed the same or changed • Need to support with historically accurate evidence • Paragraph Four: • Conclusion • Analysis of the process of the continuity and change over time (why things changed and why they stayed the same) • If this hadn’t been done in previous two paragraphs
