About this resource
This quiz comprehensively covers the post-Civil War era of American history, specifically focusing on Reconstruction, the Gilded Age, industrialization, and westward expansion from approximately 1865-1900. Designed for 11th-grade students, the questions assess understanding of complex historical processes including economic transformation, labor movements, political corruption, and social reform. Students need to demonstrate mastery of cause-and-effect relationships, analyze the interconnections between industrialization and urbanization, and evaluate the impact of government policies on different social groups. The quiz requires knowledge of key figures like Andrew Carnegie, John Muir, and Booker T. Washington, as well as understanding of major legislation such as the Sherman Antitrust Act and the Homestead Act. Students must also analyze primary source materials, as evidenced by the cartoon interpretation questions, and synthesize information about competing ideologies like Social Darwinism versus the Social Gospel movement. Created by Shayne Martin, a History teacher in the US who teaches grade 11. This assessment serves as an excellent comprehensive review tool for students preparing for unit exams or AP U.S. History assessments covering the late 19th century. The quiz works effectively as a formative assessment to identify knowledge gaps before major testing, or as homework to reinforce classroom discussions about industrialization and its social consequences. Teachers can use individual questions as bell-ringers to activate prior knowledge or group several related questions for focused review sessions on specific topics like labor unions or Reconstruction policies. The varied question formats support differentiated instruction while maintaining alignment with standards such as CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RH.11-12.7 for analyzing diverse primary and secondary sources, and AP U.S. History standards covering Period 6 (1865-1898) themes of economic transformation, migration, and the development of an industrial economy.
