Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 8.113 Rubrics and Self‑Assessment skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A viral infographic shows unemployment falling while job openings rise and claims, 'Anyone unemployed just isn't trying.' Which fact-check response is strongest?

AThe infographic proves every unemployed person refused a job.

BThe claim is too simple because openings and unemployment can exist together when jobs do not match workers' skills or locations.

CRising job openings always eliminate unemployment immediately.

DUnemployment data should never be compared with job openings.

Solution & Explanation:A strong fact-check explains why both patterns can happen at the same time and why the graphic does not justify blaming every unemployed worker.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Examine the school rezoning map and the table of current enrollment, travel times, and language-support needs. Which recommendation is most evidence-based?

AMove the bilingual neighborhood to School B, which has space, shorter travel times, and a dual-language program.

BSend more students to School A, which is already over capacity.

CIgnore travel time and language support when redrawing zones.

DKeep every current boundary even if one school stays overcrowded.

Solution & Explanation:School B best matches the evidence because it has room, supports the students' language needs, and reduces travel time.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A chart shows the topics mentioned most in public comments: parks 42%, traffic 30%, housing 18%, libraries 10%. Council votes later fund traffic calming and parks improvements but cut library hours. Which statement is best supported?

ACouncil ignored all public comment.

BCouncil responded only to libraries.

CPublic comments and council votes cannot be compared.

DCouncil action partly matched public comment because the two most-mentioned topics received action, but libraries received less support.

Solution & Explanation:The council acted on the top two topics in public comments, but its later library cut did not match library supporters.
