Revision

A4 Revision essentials is a printable but not editable A4 sheet with the absolute essentials to hopefully help you pass the Matu. 
​'Six like Sydney' are not available for this topic. Sydney used the textbook.

Matu History Revision Booklet Podcast was created using AI (Google's remarkable NotebookLM). The content of the conversation was generated from simply uploading the relevant content from the A4 Revisions essentials above and waiting a few moments. ​

Quizet Top Ten Questions 

Study the revision guide or listen to the podcast and then test your understanding by considering the following key questions: ​
End of Unit Test - 01 May 2025

There will be three sections to the end of unit test that will last one hour. 

Section A - Factual recall. [10 marks]

​These ten questions will require short - even one-word - answers that test your knowledge of the unit. Facts mean names, dates, places etc. FAQ: Does this mean you have to learn all the dates? No... but all the answers expected here are things you should know: names of presidents, New Deal agencies, laws passed, etc. ​

Section B - Explanation [5]

Be prepared to answer one of the following questions:
What were the main characteristics of the 'roaring 20s'?
What were the main causes of the Wall Street Crash?
Explain with examples the main features of Roosevelt's New Deal.

Section C - Essay [15]

This subject is of starred importance for the Matu exam, just like the Industrial Revolution topic we did last year. This is an opportunity for revision. Using the same PESC structure and approach we followed last year, I'd like you to prepare an answer to the following question. 

How similar were the first and second industrial revolutions? 

​You will find the following page essential to your planning.
