Aspiring teachers need to pass one or more of the California Subject Examinations for Teachers (CSET) to qualify for licensure in this state. The CSET for social science teachers consists of three subtests covering history, geography, civics and economics. Subtest I focuses on world history and world geography. It includes 39 multiple-choice questions, two short response essay questions and one extended response essay question. You'll have five hours for your testing session, and you can choose to take one, two or all three subtests during this time. The test is offered only in a paper-based format, and you'll need to bring your own #2 pencils on test day. You can prepare for the exam with Education Portal's study guide, which includes video lessons and quizzes on the following topics:
You'll encounter questions about the social and cultural structures, intellectual contributions and philosophical traditions of ancient civilizations from a wide range of geographical regions. Significant economic and political developments occurring in early modern Europe are covered as well. You can also expect to answer questions on topics ranging from the causes and outcomes of 18th century conflicts like the American Revolution to the impact of 19th century imperialism. Additional exam topics include the effects of world wars I and II and the Cold War. You should also be familiar with physical and human geography to do well on the test. Preparing and Registering for the CSET Social Science Subtest IEducation Portal's study guide provides you with short video lessons that discuss all of the topics included on the exam. The instructors break down the information into manageable sections that are engaging and easy to follow. You can even use the corresponding quizzes to assess your understanding of the material and find out how the exam's multiple-choice questions are formatted. Begin the registration process by creating an online account through the CSET website. Once you've selected a username and password and entered in your personal information, you'll be able to choose the test date and testing location that suits you. The social science subtests are administered four times a year. The regular registration deadline falls about one month before the test date, though you can sign up by the late and emergency registration deadlines for an additional fee. Categories:
