AP+World+History

​​

Welcome to Advanced Placement World History. This college-level course covers approximately 10,000 years of history, so we have a lot to cover and absorb. AP World History is taught using extensive reading and the exploration of the five themes of world history (broken down into seven themes for our class). It is designed to help you develop an understanding of the evolution of global processes and contacts in different human societies, comparing and contrasting societies, and examining the nature of continuities and change over time, while building an understanding of cultural, institutional, and technical precedents that, along with geography, set the human stage. This will be accomplished through factual knowledge, identification of recurrent patterns and trends and analysis of historical evidence. For most of you, this is your first foray into the world of advanced placement classes. To be successful, you will need to stay focused, be prepared to read, and to work hard.
