Need some help with combining my knowledge with sources. How exactly would I format my response? Analyse source A and the move on to source B, or do them both together? Also, in a similar way to english exam, for example, a source's quote, then effect, then input some of my own knowledge or should I integrate quotes through my own knowledge?

There isnt really a structure per se with the source questions, as they are all a bit different. Your own knowledge means pretty much what you have learned in class or anything extra you might know.

With some questions, you might use your own knowledge to develop the response and use the sources to support . Alternatively you might primarily discuss the sources and how they relate to the question, whilst incorperating your knowledge throughout. It really depends on the question and the info contained in the sources. Its important to note that you should have a balance between use of the sources and your own knowledge.
