Criteria Feedback
- The student communicates a clear historical investigation topic and keeps the broad issue identifiable throughout the report.
- The student's research question uses an evaluative frame that allows them to compare British actions with other causes.
- The student includes a range of relevant material and shows some awareness of why certain sources need careful handling.
- The investigation remains broader than it needs to be, so the argument sometimes drifts beyond the core question.
- Some important terms are not defined precisely enough, especially where identity, sect, and ethnicity are treated too loosely.
- The source selection and use would benefit from clearer justification and a more deliberate method for choosing evidence.
