The Continuity and Change Over Time (CCOT) EssaySlide2

Primary purpose of CCOT is to test students’ mastery of their historical thinking skills (

argumentation, causation, contextualization, synthesis).The student must show what has changed and what has remained continuous from the beginning to the end of the time period given. The continuities must be substantial, not obvious (Germans remained Germans), nor can change be continuous.The important element is WHY things did or did not change.Time allotted for this essay is 40 minutes (5-10 of which should be spent planning/outlining).If possible, pick the nonwestern regions.

AP Rubric

&Class ExpectationsSlide17

Acceptable thesis statements need to address both change and continuity, stating as least one of each.

Thesis statements need to be explicit, not restatements of the question or vague statements, such as “there were more changes than continuities.”Thesis MustsAddress PromptPlace/Time3 Categories/Groups1:2 Ratio (1 Continuity and 2 Changes / 2 Continuities and 1 Change)

ThesisSlide18

“From (this date) to (that date), (X) showed changes in (A), yet showed consistency in (B) and (C).”

“From (this date) to (that date), (X) showed consistency in (A), but showed changes in (B) and (C).”“Even though (A) showed changes in (this place) at (this time), (B) and (C) continued to happen.”“Even though (A) remained the same in (this place) at (this time), (B) and (C) changed.”How to Construct the ThesisSlide19

Sample Thesis

2012: Analyze continuities and changes in trade networks between Africa and Eurasia from circa 300 CE to 1450 CE.“From (this date) to (that date), (X) showed consistency in (A), but showed changes in (B) and (C).”

What Order?

What Good Responses Should Include

Moves beyond a mechanistic “beginning, middle, end” formatProvides solid chronological knowledge across the entire time periodInclude dates to demonstrate the ability to describe with some precision when continuity and change happenSlide23

World Historical ContextSlide24

World Historical Context

Must provide the surrounding historical events and climate so that the reader understands what is occurring while these changes and continuities are happeningEssay relates or describes extra-regional connections or global process to explain a continuity OR change in response to the promptSlide25

World Historical Context

Example: “During the time from 200 BCE to roughly 400 CE, major empires such as the Romans in Europe, Gupta in India, Han in China, and stability in Persians allowed the Silk Roads to prosper, until disease and nomadic invasions disrupted this peace and the Silk Roads fell into disease.”“Over a period of time, Silk Roads were responsible for bringing different cultures into contact“ is NOT acceptable because of the lack of specificity.Slide26

Analyzing Process of

Change or ContinuitySlide27

Analyzing Process of Change or Continuity

Must analyze at least one reason for a continuity or changeWhy does this particular thing change? What causes that change, and why does that change occur right then and not at some other time?Why does this particular thing stay the same? Is something prevented change, or is consistency with this thing desired?Slide28

Analyzing Process of Change or Continuity

Example: “Buddhism’s popularity declined in India during the Classical period as a direct result of many factors. First, the Guptas promoted Hinduism in a period directly after Buddhist Kushan rule where Buddhism had come to be associated with foreignness. Secondly, Buddhism rejects the idea of the caste system, a social structure which was deeply engrained into Indian society as a result of Aryan and Hindu influence.”Slide29
