Milestone Documents now offers document quizzes for several hundred sources in U.S. History, World History, and Western Civilization. These quizzes are available as individual text files that any instructor can download and utilize. In addition, instructors can download a text file of all quizzes that are included with sources that they already assign on their own course pages. At present, students cannot complete quizzes in an interactive manner on our website.
Our document quizzes are multiple-choice questions that are designed to test basic comprehension and understanding. A typical document quiz includes 2-4 questions.
All quiz content is viewable only by instructors; no students can view or access quiz content. If you're new to Milestone Documents and would like to review our sourcebooks and associated quizzes, start here to create a free instructor review account.
