• With Define & Explain questions, you will
be asked to not only identify the meaning
of a term, but also to place it in the context
of Canadian history.
• You need to tell me WHAT it is and WHY
it is important to the history we have
studied
It is imperative that you remember
to complete BOTH parts of the
answer!
EXAMPLE
Identify & Define the following term:
Convoy System
Answer:
• The Convoy System is the method whereby armed naval
warships act as protection for transport/merchant vessels by
encircling them as they travel across the ocean, much like
bodyguards. The Canadian navy used convoys during WWI to
protect vital war supplies en route to Britain from being sunk
by German submarines.

Explain
You should not need more then 2
sentences. (3 maximum!)
These are just
EXAMPLES – there are
many other terms that
might come up on the
quiz
Examples of Terms:
• July Crisis
• Shell Shock
• Imperialism
• Trench Foot
• Stalemate
• Propaganda
• Triple Entente
• Zepellins
Visual Analysis
You will need to assess a visual source
(propaganda poster, political cartoon, photo,
etc.) and be able to make judgements and
inferences based on the source
For this quiz, we will be focusing on
propaganda.
EXAMPLE
1.) What is the poster
specifically trying to get
people to do?
2.) List three
propaganda techniques
being used in the poster
and how each is being
used.
• 1.) The poster is
trying to get people to
buy war bonds to
support the war effort.
2.)
• Direct Order
– The phrase “halt the
Hun” tells the
audience that their
help is needed to stop
Germany
• Glittering Generalities
– They use the word
“liberty” to label the
loan. “Liberty” is a
word with many
possible connotations
that appeals to people
more then simply a
“war loan”
• Stereotype
– The German soldier is
depicted as a brute
who needs to be
stopped from
brutalizing a woman
and her child
