AP® World History: Modern

​All-Genders Course;
​Prerequisite - Successful completion of 8th grade and one year of high school social studies recommended;
Full-Year Course

In this World History course, students investigate, discuss, and analyze significant events, individuals, developments, and processes from approximately 1200 CE to the present. Students cultivate the skills used by historians when they analyze historical sources, make connections and comparisons, and craft historical arguments. The course is designed around six themes: humans and the environment, cultural developments and interactions, governance, economic systems, social interactions and organization, and technology and innovation. Emphasis is placed on historical thinking skills such as source analysis, contextualization, argumentation, comparison, and chronological reasoning. By the end of this course, students are able to explain the complex challenges of today through the lens of historical events and have improved their analytical and  evaluative writing skills. Additionally, students in the AP track will have gained the necessary skills for success on the AP® World History: Modern Exam in May.
