Evaluate reliability without dismissing bias: Rwandan genocide and international response

History SL 2028 assessment source-first practice. This perspective comparison source about Rwandan genocide and international response from 1990 to 1994 in Central Africa is being used for this task focus: bias, reliability, and usefulness. A student is answering a Paper 1 source inquiry. What should the next sentence do so source content, provenance, origin, purpose, audience, historical context, perspective, corroboration, and judgement are used accurately? Select the inquiry focus, source evidence, context/perspective move, and historical judgement. Then answer in your own words: what should the student write next to strengthen this History SL response for the exact source or task? AI will analyse your source use, provenance, historical context, perspective, concepts, argument judgement, and expression.

Worked practice: build the argument

Build the historical argument: inquiry focus, source evidence, context and perspective, then a supported judgement.
