The DBQ / LEQ Builder creates a document-based question with attributed sources of varied type and perspective, or a long essay question — both with the current AP rubric rows, a model thesis and teacher notes on document grouping.

Step by step
- Choose DBQ or LEQ and the AP course.
- Enter the topic or period.
- For a DBQ, choose 5 or the exam-standard 7 documents.
- Press ✨ Generate and read the sources critically before handing them out.
- Print: prompt and documents for students; rubric, model thesis and teacher notes on the key pages.
Tips
- 💡 ⚠ Sources are short excerpts or descriptions written for classroom practice. Verify anything you present as a genuine primary source, and tell students which are adapted.
- 💡 The teacher notes suggest which documents group together — a ready-made scaffold for a first DBQ.
Example
AP World History, Industrial Revolution 1750–1900, 7 documents → prompt, sources and the 7-point rubric.
