Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 7.56 Read in History and Social Studies Disciplines skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Source A (merchant ledger, 1765): lists payments for sugar, rum, and shipping fees. Source B (abolitionist pamphlet, 1788): argues that the trade relies on enslaved labor and calls for boycotts. Source C (modern museum label): explains that profits from trade helped finance port-city growth but depended on forced labor systems.

Which statement best synthesizes the relationship among the sources?

AThe ledger proves boycotts never happened.

BThe pamphlet is useless because it is persuasive writing.

CThe museum label contradicts the ledger because it is modern.

DThe ledger provides economic records, while the pamphlet and museum label interpret the moral and social context of the trade using broader evidence.

Solution & Explanation:The ledger is a primary economic record. The pamphlet argues a moral position, and the museum label provides interpretation and context. Together they show how primary records and later analyses relate.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A local archive publishes a scanned document and provides a digital signature and checksum. A reposted copy circulates with a slightly different paragraph and no signature. You want to know which version is authentic.

Which evidence best supports verifying the authentic version?

AThe repost has more dramatic wording.

BThe repost is shared by a popular influencer.

CMatching the archive's checksum/signature to confirm the file has not been altered

DThe repost uses a nicer font

Solution & Explanation:Checksums and signatures allow integrity verification. If a file matches the archive's verification data, it is more likely authentic and unchanged.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A student is researching the Haitian Revolution and uses search engines. Early results show mostly unsourced summaries. A librarian suggests adding specific terms like "primary source translation," "archive," and the names of key leaders and dates.

Which search strategy is most likely to improve the quality of sources the student finds?

ASearching only "Haitian Revolution cool facts"

BUsing targeted keywords that surface archives, primary sources, and scholarly materials

CClicking only the first result every time

DAvoiding any sources older than last week

Solution & Explanation:Adding targeted terms helps filter results toward archives and scholarly materials. Vague searches often surface unsourced summaries.
