"As document-based questions become a more common form of assessment, Teaching with DBQs is a must-have resource for educators. The author provides strategies and examples for teaching students a step-by-step process for analyzing and evaluating documents and for responding to document-based questions. This proven process will aid teachers in helping students to develop the necessary life skill of high-level critical thinking." – Karen Benningfield, Supervisor of Secondary Instruction, White County Schools, TN "Teaching with DBQs is the go-to guide for helping teachers and students overcome the complexity of Document Based Questions.
