CONTINUITY AND CHANGE• Continuity and change are
interrelated (relate to one another)
• Change is a continuous process, but there are turning points
• Change does not always signal progress
• Developing a chronology can assist greatly
• Organizing history into specific periods can help organize your understanding of continuity and change

CAUSE AND CONSEQUENCE
• Causes are often numerous and layered. They may involve long-term conditions and short-term actions
• Actions may very well result in unintended consequences
• We are constantly shaping and responding to conditions, which are a result of earlier human actions
• Two very common focuses are political and economical

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE• How did people think and feel at
the time?
• Understanding the diversity of perspectives is key to understanding the event
• When taking a historical perspective, you will not necessarily agree. It simply means that you are trying to understand them

ETHICAL DIMENSION• Studying and learning from
the past can help think about ethical dilemmas today
• You must be careful not to impose today’s standards on past actions, when assessing a conflict
• Often helps us to honour a debt of memory, clarify whether apologies are in order, or to make amends
