CONTENT STATEMENT
Historians analyze cause, effect, sequence, and correlation in historical events, including multiple causation and long- and short-term causal relations.
Content elaboration
When studying a historical event or person in history, historians analyze cause-and-effect relationships. For example, to understand the impact of World War I, an analysis would include the causes and effects of the war.
An analysis also would include an examination of the sequence and correlation of events. How did one event lead to another? How do they relate to one another?
For example, an examination of the causes of World War I would include the assassination of Austrian Archduke Ferdinand by a Serbian nationalist as a short-term cause and Serbian opposition to the rule of Serbia by imperial powers as a long-term cause.
EXPECTATIONS FOR LEARNING
