The course is designed to cover important events that have

shaped the world from 1500 to the present. You will be viewing
and interpreting periods in world history from various
perspectives, including historical, geographical, political,
economic, and cultural. Together, these perspectives can help you
understand how the past has led to our present and to appreciate
your role in shaping our future.

The instructor reserves the right to deal with specific late work
and make-up work issues on a case by case basis. The general
rules that will apply are as follows:
If you are absent, it is YOUR responsibility to get with me
about missed assignments.
You have 3 days to make up the work or else it will be
considered late.
Late assignments will be deducted 50% and are subject for
refusal.
Anything assigned prior to absent is due upon return.

We will watch multiple historically based video clips. The video

ratings range from G-PG 13 and may contain re-enactments of
wars or war like images. If you dont not feel comfortable having
your child view these types of images please let me know.
