About The DBQ Project
The DBQ Project believes ALL students can become analytical thinkers and proficient writers. Our Document Based Questions (DBQs) foster critical thinking skills, historical inquiry, rigorous academic writing, and civil discourse. The DBQ Project 6-Step Method engages students and transforms classrooms. Our learning platform, DBQ Online, supercharges a teacher's ability to scaffold, engage, and meet the needs of all learners.
