EE（Extended Essay）是IB課程的三大核心課程之一，需要學(xué)生們選擇一門科目的話題進(jìn)行研究，很多學(xué)生會(huì)選擇歷史作為自己的IB研究課題，要做EE，首先就是要確定選題，才能進(jìn)行后面的研究，但是很多學(xué)生在選題的時(shí)候總是沒有好的想法，今天留求藝留學(xué)為大家總結(jié)了IB歷史EE選題方法及題目推薦，希望對(duì)大家有幫助。

IB歷史EE選題要求

1、IB歷史EE話題應(yīng)該集中在10年或更久以前的歷史上。在IB中，不超過10年的問題都屬于當(dāng)前事件，因此不適合歷史延伸短文。學(xué)生選擇的主題必須著眼于人類的過去，追溯到足夠遠(yuǎn)的真實(shí)歷史。要想在主題選擇上獲得高分，對(duì)EE的想法至少要早10年。

2、IB歷史EE主題應(yīng)該是研究歷史相關(guān)的問題。IB歷史EE的選題不用從IB歷史科目中選，可以自由選擇任何想要的話題，然而，選擇的主題應(yīng)該是相關(guān)的和可接受的，導(dǎo)師會(huì)審核你提出的題目，決定你是否能分析它對(duì)人類的歷史意義。根據(jù)IB的規(guī)定，題目必須“值得研究”。

3、選擇一個(gè)能用4000字探討的話題。IB歷史EE選擇的主題范圍不應(yīng)該太寬或太具體，應(yīng)該足夠正確，以允許進(jìn)行深入的分析，而不會(huì)超過最大字?jǐn)?shù)或太淺。

4、主題應(yīng)該允許批判性的分析和評(píng)論。開發(fā)一個(gè)開放式研究問題，允許發(fā)展一種分析的方法，而不是描述或敘述的方法，也就是研究問題應(yīng)該從“to what extent”或“how significant”這樣的詞開始，而不是“what”或“how”這樣的詞。

5、主題應(yīng)該是學(xué)科性和學(xué)術(shù)性的。EE需要將主題集中在某個(gè)學(xué)科上，并從學(xué)術(shù)角度來看待它。例如，如果你選擇寫美國(guó)的大蕭條，可以從經(jīng)濟(jì)的角度來看。如果你寫蒸汽技術(shù)的推出及其對(duì)人口增長(zhǎng)的影響，可能會(huì)從社會(huì)學(xué)的角度來探討這個(gè)話題。要明確的是，學(xué)術(shù)待遇意味著這個(gè)話題可以探索一手和二手資料，但是在研究工作中，主要關(guān)注第一手資料，因?yàn)樗鼈儠?huì)增加可信度。

IB歷史EE選題方法

1、頭腦風(fēng)暴：IB歷史EE有很多可以做的想法，可以隨便選擇一個(gè)想法，并賦予它歷史的轉(zhuǎn)折。例如，如果你是一個(gè)技術(shù)迷，可以的題目是蒸汽機(jī)在歐洲工業(yè)中的影響如何？如果你熱愛考古，歷史學(xué)科是不缺的。在這個(gè)階段所要做的就是寫下所有想到的事情，可以從課程、朋友、媒體或者圖書館獲得靈感。

2、縮小范圍：首先刪除任何不合適的主題來縮小初步列表，包括任何過于復(fù)雜的、非學(xué)術(shù)性的(例如虛構(gòu)的作品)，以及那些看起來對(duì)你沒有特別吸引力的作品。也可以剔除那些“不值得研究”的內(nèi)容。

3、進(jìn)行選擇：現(xiàn)在應(yīng)該有了3-5個(gè)剩余可能的題目了，可以認(rèn)真考慮每個(gè)可能性了。理想情況下，可以用新的觀點(diǎn)來探討老話題，或者選擇全新的話題，這樣你的文章將會(huì)獨(dú)一無二，引人入勝。記住，你可以隨時(shí)準(zhǔn)備一個(gè)B計(jì)劃，以防第一個(gè)話題有問題。

4、深入研究：對(duì)選擇的主題進(jìn)行一般性研究。網(wǎng)上和圖書館資源是研究的第一站。這里的想法是知道自己在處理什么，制定自己的方法，理解概念，也許找出任何差距。

5、提出問題：闡述自己的研究問題是擴(kuò)展論文準(zhǔn)備的最終目的，可以引導(dǎo)研究，調(diào)整思想，激發(fā)自己的靈感。一個(gè)好的研究問題是成功的25%。

IB歷史EE題目推薦

1、主題：The origins of the Cold War in Europe 1945–48

研究問題：How far was the Christian Democrat victory in the Italian elections of 1948 influenced by Cold War tensions?

研究方法：Reading is undertaken to fully understand the context and the importance of this election as the first in post-war republican Italy. More detailed research may be carried out to determine the methods used by the Italian Communist Party and the Christian Democrats to rally their supporters and also any role played by the USSR and the US in influencing the outcome. Both primary and secondary sources would be accessible and should be used. An examination, and evaluation, of different interpretations would be carried out as well as consideration of domestic factors to be weighed against the influence of the Cold War, allowing a conclusion to be reached.

2、主題：The decline of the Ottoman Empire

研究問題：To what extent was poor leadership the reason for the defeat of the Ottoman armies at the gates of Vienna in 1683?

研究方法：Reading is undertaken to become familiar with the context of the topic, in particular to understand the nature of the Ottoman Empire and its weaknesses by the end of the 17th century in order to determine how these may have contributed to its defeat. Also to read sources on the decline in leadership after the death of Suleiman the Magnificent, over a century earlier. The growing unity among the Christian powers in Europe and its contribution to their victory in 1683 will also be examined. Both primary and secondary sources as well as a variety of historical interpretations will be accessed to understand the Habsburg Empires at this time and the reasons why the siege was brought to an end. The merits of various interpretations regarding the factors that led to the defeat of the Ottomans as well as the success of the Christian league can be examined and both primary and secondary sources will be used to allow a judgment to be made.

3、主題：The 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago

研究問題：“I have done my best. I have lost, Mr. Nixon has won.” (Hubert Humphrey) To what extent did Hubert Humphrey lose the 1968 presidential election because of the Chicago Convention?

研究方法：General reading is undertaken to aid familiarization with the events of 1968, a year marked by riots, protests and political assassinations. Both primary and secondary sources are used as well as different interpretations accessed to discover the reasons for the defeat of Humphrey, the Democratic presidential candidate. These are identified and assessed to allow a judgment to be made on the importance of the Convention as a factor that influenced the outcome of the election.

4、主題：The Truth and Reconciliation Commission in post-apartheid South Africa

研究問題：How far did the Truth and Reconciliation Commission achieve its twin aims of establishing the truth and achieving reconciliation by 2002?

研究方法：Both primary and secondary resources that outline the Commission procedures and findings are used for background and note-taking. The criticisms of the Commission are also investigated to see how far they can be justified. The end point of 2002 (the year that the Commission came to an end) is included to provide a focus to the investigation and to narrow its scope sufficiently.
