West & the World

Picture
This course investigates the major trends in Western civilization and world history from the 16th Century to the present. Students learn about the interaction between the emerging West and other regions of the world and about the development of modern social, political, and economic systems. The skills and knowledge developed in this course enable students to understand and appreciate both the character of historical change and the historical roots of contemporary issues.

The destination of university has been taken into consideration and this course has been designed to prepare the student for a first year university education. A variety of skills critical to success in a university history course will be developed in performance tasks throughout the course, including an arts movement presentation, a biography display, a seminar discussion, test writing, and a major essay, all of which develop skills and understanding of historical concepts which will be critical for success in university.
