DBQ PROJECT FINAL- US HISTORY 1

Name_________________

Date__________________

Period______________

Document Based Question (DBQ) Final Project- US History- Mr. Javier

Reminders:
● As a class, we have spent significant time on historical thinking skills and DBQ writing. In

this project, you will create and answer your own DBQ.
● Please use Google Docs or Pages to work on this document. For this project, this is

much more efficient than using Notability.
● Please type this assignment in Times New Roman, Font Size 12.
● Please remember that this is individual work. All assignments will be submitted to Turn It

In.
● Feel free to message me for any questions you have.
● Once you are finished with the project, please delete all the instructions. Just keep the

steps and the parts you typed.

Step 1: Choose a topic that we have studied this semester that you are interested in.
Here are the topics we studied this semester:

● Spanish-American War and Imperialism
● World War I
● World War II- rise of dictators, impact, fighting, and aftermath of WW II
● Trial of the Nazi Julius Streicher (or you can choose another Nazi leader)
● Cold War

Type your topic here ______________________________

Step 2: Create an essential question you are interested in answering.

● The questions should be open-ended (require more than a one word answer, like yes or
no).

● It should not be a question we already answered in class.
● The question should involve two sides which could lead to a debate.
● Utilize the following words to help you think of a question: Explain, Discuss, Describe,

Evaluate, How, Does, Should
● Good examples

○ How should we remember the dropping of the atomic bomb?
○ Did World War I lead to progress in society?
○ Should the US have done more to prevent the attack on Pearl Harbor?
○ Is propaganda necessary to win a war?
○ How did the Nazis become so evil?

DBQ PROJECT FINAL- US HISTORY 2

● Bad examples
○ Explain if Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is a violent video game or not.
○ Evaluate the extent to which Nike Air Force Ones are shoes.
○ (Both of these questions have obvious answers)

Type your essential question here_____________________________

Step 3: Explain background information on your chosen topic and question.

● In other words, what was going on in the world, the country, and the region during your
topic of choice?

● Also, answer the following:
○ Who was involved?
○ Where did this happen?
○ When did this happen?
○ What happened?
○ Why did this happen?

● This should be a paragraph minimum.
● You can use the assigned readings (or another reliable source, like History.com) to find

this information.
● For example, suppose I chose the topic, How should we remember the dropping of the

atomic bomb? I would go back into my readings and briefly explain:
○ who was involved with the atomic bomb
○ where was it created
○ where was it dropped
○ when was it created and dropped
○ what happened with the atomic bomb
○ why was the atomic bomb created
○ why was it dropped
○ what was going on in the world when it was created

Type the background information here__________________________________
