All-Genders Course;

This course revolves upon the five core themes of geography: location, place, region, movement, and human-environment interaction. Students learn how to study the systemic patterns and processes that have shaped human understanding, use, and alteration of the earth's surface (including agriculture, industries, markets, and urbanization). Students learn about the methods and tools geographers use in their research and applications. The curriculum reflects the goals of the National Geography Standards. Using personalized learning options, collaborative discussions, and creative synthesis applications, students will develop an appreciation of the variables that geographers consider when analytically problem-solving for the contemporary challenges facing our world. Core competencies developed throughout the course include: the ability to develop and apply multivariable analyses based upon the themes of geography; active engagement with current events; and collaborative problem solving that evaluates the potential unintended consequences of interventions into local, regional, and global communities. Students taking this course are well prepared for the AP® Human Geography Exam in May.

"I found myself learning a lot about different concepts and applying them on the exam felt very satisfying. I really enjoyed all of the discussions we had during the semester, and I learned a lot about my classmates who also take this course….I also wanted to learn more about different cultures, and I also can say that was also a successful endeavor.” Course ApprovalThis course is approved by the College Board and the NCAA.
