About This Activity
"This course is a study of world history from prehistoric to contemporary times. Students will learn about the socio-economic, political, and ideological conditions of various time periods as they study historical events and cultural achievements of world regions. Using primary and secondary sources, students will use critical thinking and problem-solving skills to conduct inquiry-based research, participate in interactive discussions, and complete assignments establishing real-world connections.All of Ms. Beach’s classes will provide all needed skills to earn transcript credit with grading of all homework, testing and projects. At the end of the program you will have a printable syllabus and description of all that was learned in that year. This is a graded class unless instructed otherwise. There will be homework to be completed weekly. All of Ms. Beach’s classes follow the engineering model for science. This means every unit student will be assigned a project and over the course of the unit they will gain the skills and knowledge to complete each project."
