What is a Source?

Score depth, structure, and source use—at scale.

A source in an assessment is a passage, excerpt, image, map, graph, or other stimulus that students must interpret and analyze to complete a task. Sources ground student thinking in specific content and allow tasks to assess not just recall or opinion, but interpretation, reasoning, and evidence use. This helps build the skills students need not just for academic success, but for interpreting texts and information in the real world.
