EXAM Study Guide
WWI EXAM - This Friday
This exam will be a take home exam, that is due on the Monday we return from February break (February 28). With the exception of a legal absence from school, anyone who does not turn in the exam, will receive a grade of zero.
We will beging working on the exam in class on Friday. You will work on it at home and finish over the week that we're off from school, in addition to your February break assignments. Although the exam is a take-home exam, it is expected that you will put the same effort into studying that you would as if it were an in-class exam.
Here's a link to the exam.
Please note that you don't have to print out the exam. You only have to turn in the answer sheet.
Here's what's going to be on the exam. The exam will very closely approximate a Regents exam in term of its length, and depth of coverage of the subject.
1. Vocab:
Selective Service Act
Hello Girls
Big Four
Fourteen Points
Treaty of Versailles
Schlieffen Plan
Sussex Pledge
Allied Powers
Central Powers

U-Boats

reparations
2. Multiple Choice: 40 Questions
3. Thematic Essay Topic: Supreme Court Cases Concerning Constitutional Civil Liberties Task: Using the case of Schenck vs. United States,
• Discuss the facts of the case (what do you know about it?)
• Identify a specific constitutional civil liberty issue addressed by the Supreme Court (what rights were in question)
• Discuss how the decision of the Supreme Court either expanded or limited a specific constitutional civil liberty in the United States (how did the decision affect how people were able to use that right?)
4. DBQ – Topic: Why did the US enter WWI? Will be VERY similar to the assignment we did in class.
You’ll have about 5 DBQ’s to answer.
Each document will relate to the US’s entry into WWI.
After you finish the DBQ’s, you’ll have an outline to complete
After the outline, you’ll write your essay.
Has to have intro, conclusion, and body paragraphs
Answer MUST make reference to a certain # of document(s) (ex: “in document 1, it shows that the US was exporting nearly 2 billion dollars to Britain by 1916.”
Good Luck!
