English term or phrase: MAJOR
"Kathleen McCarthy Young and Gaea Leinhardt (1998) observed five high school students in an AP History classroom. The teacher used primary and secondary sources instead of an authoritative but “authorless
textbook” in her effort to introduce these students to a more sophisticated way of knowing history—not as a list of facts but rather as constructed and interpreted from various artifacts and documents.
The students engaged in four MAJOR Document-Based Question writing tasks. The authors analyzed both the tasks and the texts produced by the five students to assess their progress in mastering not only the
content but also the rhetorical strategies of the discipline."
