• Each worth 10 marks

• You need to decide how far or fully a source describes an individual topic (how far) or an entire issue (how fully)

• How far – might be on a small topic within an issue – e.g. decline of heavy industry (which is in issue 3 – economy)

• How fully – relevant to an entire issue – e.g. Issue 1 Scots on the Western Front

• Points from recall – max of 7 marks

Type Three – How far/fully does Type Three – How far/fully does Source A give evidence of…?Source A give evidence of…?

1. Give a brief introductory statement about the source mentioning the highlights and pointing out that the source partly describes the topic/issue

2. Select relevant points from the source - develop each point with relevant recall

3. Bring in your own knowledge (recall) and discuss other relevant points that are not mentioned in the source OR expand on a point in the source with relevant detail

4. End your answer with a short conclusion that answers the overall question

So…So…

1. Brief overall statement – partly describes

2. Points from source, developed3. Own knowledge – points not in

source OR expand on points in source

4. Short conclusion answering question

Other points from SQA for Other points from SQA for all paper 2 questions…all paper 2 questions…

1. Marking is positive and relates to the points made

2. For credit to be given, points must relate to the question asked

3. If relevant evidence is selected, from either the source and/or recall, but no explicit evaluation is made then the maximum mark that may be achieved is 3 for questions out of 5 and 6 for questions that are out of 10. (This means that implicit evaluation will still be credited, but only to a notional maximum of 18/30)

• So if you don’t give an overall evaluation for how far/fully questions the most you can get is 6/10

• This is why intro sentence and conclusion are necessary

Top Tip!Top Tip!

• Before answering a how fully/how far question write down a checklist of all the things you think you should mention.

• This acts as a simple plan for your answer.

• Do your source/content answers with recall and tick the points off your list.

• The points not mentioned will be your recall points – remember separate paragraph & give some details.

How Far Issue 3Source C The First World War was the salvation of many Scottish

industries. By 1918 the production of coal had picked up to such an extent that over 140,000 miners were employed in Scotland. Coal was the vital power source of the age and few could have predicted the difficulties it would run into in the following decade. However it was vital for the production of everything from ships to machine guns.

Perhaps the greatest beneficiary of the war was the Jute industry of Dundee which saw a massive boost in its orders for sandbags for the Western Front. The downside was the massive increase in the population which led to even greater housing problems. This added to the misery of a workforce already suffering food and clothing shortages.

How far does Source C give evidence of the affect of World War 1 on the Scottish economy between 1914 - 1918?

war.• Jute In Dundee many orders for sandbags during war boosted industry, 6 million sacks per month. • Fishing: Years before 1914 boom time for Scottish east coast herring industry.• Demand for fish increased due to wartime food shortages.• Fishing fleet hampered due to wartime restrictions e.g. targeted by German navy, fishing ships commandeered
