Structure of Social Studies Test

Test Design Information **The LEAP 2025 Social Studies assessments have a set-based design** One to four related source documents anchor sets of four to six questions. Questions ask students to use prior content knowledge and the source documents to show an understanding of social studies content and concepts. Item sets include selected-response (i.e., multiple- choice and/or multiple-select) questions and some sets culminate with a short constructed response. The task set contains selected-response questions and an extended response. The extended- response item is worth up to 8 points and scored using a two-dimensional rubric measuring content and claims.

Source Documents Sets include a variety of source documents, such as: An excerpt from a text-based primary or secondary source An authentic or historical map A chart, table, or graph A timeline or series of events Graphic organizer or diagram An illustration, painting, or photograph A historical poster or political cartoon
