HAPP—Historical Context
It will take three sentences to cover the HAPP requirement effectively.
- Sentence 1: Incorporate the document.
- Identify the speaker or author.
- Accurately describe the main idea from the document (relevant to the question being asked). This should be a description, not a quotation.
- End with a document tag, e.g., [Doc. 4]
- Sentence 2: Identify the historical context for the document.
- Sentence 3: Explain how all of this supports either the dependent clause or the main clause of your thesis.
NOTE: Sentence 1 and 2 are interchangeable.
