PLANNED COURSE CURRICULUM GUIDE

AP World History

Grade 10

I. COURSE DESCRIPTION AND INTENT:

This course approaches world history in terms of both continuity and change across six separate periodic units/themes. It examines how aspects such as trade, religion, politics, technology and military strategy have changed and continued over the course of time in separate locations throughout the world. One goal of the class is to provide a rigorous curriculum that motivates students to understand and critically analyze important concepts in World History. As a college level course, its demanding and arduous nature requires that students put forth their best effort on a daily basis. The long term goal is to both prepare students to take the AP exam in World History and to enable students to understand how the big picture of world history assists in understanding the complexities of today’s global arena.
