I think it is officially called the long essay question, so that's what we're gonna go with for now.발음듣기
대기중
Now this is the last essay that you'll be writing on the AP exam, and you get 35 minutes to do it, which is considerably shorter than the DBQ section, but the nice part about this is that you don't have so spend so much time looking at all of those primary documents.발음듣기
대기중
The more challenging part, however, is that it's drawing on your own personal knowledge of the subject matter.발음듣기
대기중
So unlike the DBQ where you're analyzing documents and looking at just what's in front of you, here you're really using your own background understanding of U.S. history and also bringing up specific details to help you make an argument.발음듣기
대기중
So on this section of the exam you're gonna have the option to choose between two different essay prompts and you can choose which of them you want to write about.발음듣기
대기중
Maybe it's about a topic that you like more or maybe it's a topic about what you feel like you can give more information, but in these cases always play to your strengths.발음듣기
대기중
So out of the two prompts that I was given there was one about whether the American Revolution was actually revolutionary, and then there was this question about whether the New Deal was actually new or whether it was more conservative in nature.발음듣기
대기중
Plus I can remember a lot about the New Deal off the top of my head, so that's gonna give me a lot of extra information to work with.발음듣기
대기중
So of this 35 minutes that you have on the long essay question, I would recommend that you spend maybe five to 10 minutes of that and I think 10 minutes would really be max to plan your essay.발음듣기
대기중
To write a little outline for yourself, to decide what your thesis is going to be, and come up with a game plan that is gonna direct the rest of your writing time, which should be the rest of the time that you spend.발음듣기
대기중
You might be the sort of person who can plan really fast and take a lot of time writing, or you might be the sort of person who knows that they can write pretty fast so they can spend some more time planning, but I think this is just kind of a good overall guideline for how you want to be spending your time.발음듣기
대기중
Okay, so once you've taken a look at each of the topics for the essay prompts and decided which one you want, the next step is to read the prompt itself really carefully.발음듣기
대기중
You want to make sure that there aren't any sort of hidden strictures in there that might direct what you are allowed to write about in the prompt and what you aren't allowed to write about in the prompt.발음듣기
대기중
"Support, modify, or refute this interpretation, providing specific evidence to justify your answer."발음듣기
대기중
Okay, so it seems like the heart of this is about whether the New Deal was conservative or radical.발음듣기
대기중
And I think in this context the word conservative doesn't mean politically conservative or right-leaning, but rather conservative as in the sense of keeping something that existed before.발음듣기
대기중
One thing I notice about this question is that it really doesn't give us much in the way of a specific timeframe to talk about.발음듣기
대기중
So it doesn't say talk about whether the New Deal was conservative or radical in the period between 1920 and 1940, it just asks us to say in the grand scheme of things do you think the New Deal was ultimately a conservative or radical movement.발음듣기
대기중
So that means if we want to we could actually talk about a lot of different things really up to the present.발음듣기
대기중
I mean, this is AP U.S. History, so the bases of everything you're writing has to be about American society, but there's nothing saying you can't compare American society to other nations in this time period.발음듣기
대기중
Or we can modify, which might take the form of saying oh, maybe it was both conservative and radical or maybe you even want to say this is not the right question to ask.발음듣기
대기중
I think one of the most useful things you can do at this stage is just make a list of things that you might want to talk about in this essay.발음듣기
대기중
So if we're thinking about the conservativeness or the radicalness of the New Deal, what sorts of things might we bring up?발음듣기
대기중
And the New Deal was this package of programs which were passed during the Great Depression by Franklin Delano Roosevelt as a means to try to restart the American economy.발음듣기
대기중
And people often talk about the New Deal kind of taking the three forms of relief, for people who are suffering, for people who need immediate aid.발음듣기
대기중
Ways to try to change laws, change the way the economy worked so that something like the Great Depression didn't happen again.발음듣기
대기중
And these were all programs that were intended to get people back to work, to try to modernize the country, and to try to moderate relationships between workers and corporations.발음듣기
대기중
Well, the New Deal was a reaction to the Great Depression, which was brought on by some irresponsible banking in the 1920s, a time of what was known as laissez-faire economics, which kind of said the government was to keep its hands out of the economy.발음듣기
대기중
Laissez-faire is French for let them do what they will, so let the economy do whatever it wants.발음듣기
대기중
Well, this all right came crashing down somewhat literally in 1929 with the stock market crash.발음듣기
대기중
Hoover had a largely hands-off approach to the Great Depression, and so he's creamed in the election of 1932 by Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who promises that he's gonna get things back on track.발음듣기
대기중
So he and his administration just kind of threw a lot of different experimental solutions at the problem to see what they could do about the Great Depression.발음듣기
대기중
Now this was partly because the Supreme Court rolled back a lot of the New Deal programs saying that they weren't constitutional, which led FDR into his famous court packing scheme where he tried to add new justices to the Supreme Court, basically tilting it in his favor.발음듣기
대기중
It really wasn't until World War II that the mobilization for war, the American manufacturing for the war, got the United States out of the Great Depression.발음듣기
대기중
So I think it's clear that the New Deal was this really unique period in the United States when the government just tried whatever they could think of in order to try to improve the economy.발음듣기
대기중
But I think the question is if we think about the basic assumptions of the New Deal itself, were those radical or were they conservative?발음듣기
