About
The most essential part of an AP History course is understanding trends, changes, and consistencies in history among nations and regions. Several times per week, we will conduct in-depth explorations of specific key topics in World History, such as Religion, Trade, Taxation, Bureaucracy, Propaganda, State Centralization, Nationalism, Colonialism, Art/Literature, and more. From 1200 to the modern day, we will cover these topics across various eras and empires, employing numerous historical analysis tools that you will utilize in your essays. There will be no memorization of dates or random historical figures; instead, we will focus on studying the Engines of history. We will also cover how do incorporate these ideas in Essays and free response questions. LEQ's MCQ's, DBQ's, we will refine these and make you incredible at scoring on these. Participation will be expected through either chat or microphone, cameras are not required but are highly encouraged.
