Key Concepts

Textual Evidence

Textual evidence is the practice of selecting specific quotes or passages from a text that directly support an argument or answer. It involves identifying text segments that substantiate interpretations or claims, ensuring that the answer is grounded in concrete references from the material.

Close Reading

Close reading is the method of examining a text carefully and in detail, focusing on word choice, structure, and nuance to uncover deeper meanings. This technique is essential for identifying and understanding the evidence in a text that supports a particular interpretation or argument.

Answer Justification

Answer justification involves providing clear, direct support for a given answer by linking it to specific parts of the text. This process emphasizes the importance of selecting the most relevant evidence that critically underpins the reasoning behind an answer.

Comparative Analysis

Comparative analysis is the process of evaluating multiple pieces of textual evidence to determine which one most effectively supports an answer. This involves assessing the relevance and strength of different text excerpts and choosing the one that offers the most compelling backing for a particular interpretation.
