The questions I choose for my test capture the outcomes I was wanting to see. It touches on a few historical women’s facts and important women figures. I also packaged the test in an easy to hard format. Multiple choice questions are always easier for people than essay questions. This makes the student think a little harder by asking them to explain in depth information regarding a person and time.

1.What year were women granted the right to vote in America?
a.)    1913
b.)    1917
c.)    1920
d.)    1931


2.What was one role that women DID NOT hold during World War II?
a.)    Police
b.)    Postal worker
c.)    Weapons maker
d.)    soldier


3.Who was Rosa Parks and what part did she have in history? Explain in detail.

In this post, I am going to list three measurable learning outcomes for my women's history class. My learning outcomes are based for the high school level women’s history because this is where I believe I would like to teach when I graduate. 
  1. Students will be able to state when women were allowed to vote.
  2. Students will be able to list what roles women held during WWI.
  3. Students will be able to define who Rosa Parks was and what acts she is known for.
