The AP® US Government and Politics exam is coming up! Take a closer look at FRQ4, the argument question, with AP® U.S. Government expert Karen Waples. In this webinar, the aim is to empower you to help students construct an analytical claim/thesis, support it with evidence and reasoning, and write a refutation or rebuttal. We present examples from a previous exam, highlight common pitfalls, and discuss how to help students earn points on the exam. A Q&A section is also included for common questions we received during the live webinar.

Economists apply a set of disciplinary tools and reasoning practices to the study of economic behavior in a way that's different from the narrative approach to the study of the past. In addition to terms, definitions, and concepts, students must learn the tools of economic analysis and how to apply them. This webinar will provide tips, strategies, and practices to help students develop a tool-box they can draw from to answer any question the AP Exam can throw at them.
