This work analyzes the influence of learning standards recently introduced in evaluation of History requirements applied in the fourth grade of secondary school in Spain (15-16 year olds). This is a descriptive study that incorporates content analysis and data quantification. The paper analyzes legislative texts and the different curricula used at the state level and in five autonomous communities, didactic programming and exams given in the 2016-2017 school year. To do so, it uses content analysis and an opinion survey sent by mail to five experts in social science didactics. The results show an assessment based on rote exams about conceptual and factual contents despite legislative changes. However, it notes glimpses of improvement in the history teaching-learning process through consideration of a new curriculum.
