Students explore key topics that extend from early African kingdoms to the ongoing challengesand achievements of the contemporary moment. Given the interdisciplinary character of African American Studies, students in the course will develop skills across multiple fields, with an emphasis on developing historical, literary, visual, and data analysis skills. This course foregrounds a study of the diversity of Black communities in the United States within the broader context of Africa and the African diaspora.  \n● Apply lenses from multiple disciplines to evaluate key concepts, historical developments, and processes that have shaped Black experiences and debates within the field of African American Studies.  \n● Identify the intersections of race, gender, and class, as well as connections between Black communities, in the United States and the broader African diaspora in the past and present.  \n● Analyze perspectives in text-based, data, and visual sources to develop well-supported arguments applied to real-world problems.  \n● Demonstrate understanding of the diversity, strength, and complexity of African societies and their global connections before the emergence of transatlantic slavery.  \n● Evaluate the political, historical, aesthetic, and transnational contexts of major social movements, including their past, present, and future implications.  \n● Develop a broad understanding of the many strategies African American communities have employed to represent themselves authentically, promote advancement, and combat the effects of inequality and systemic marginalization locally and abroad.  \n● Identify major themes that inform literary and artistic traditions ofthe African diaspora.  \n● Describe the formalization of African American Studies and new directions in the field as part of ongoing efforts to articulate Black experiences and perspectives and create a more just and inclusive future.  \n● Connect course learning with current events, local interests, and areas for future study.  \nThemes: The themes serve as the connective tissue of the course and enable students to create meaningful connections across units. They are broad ideas that run throughout the course like threads. Revisiting the themes and applying them in a variety of contexts helps students to develop deeper conceptual understanding. The following are the core themes ofthe course:  \n● Migration and the African Diaspora  \n● Intersections of Identity  \n● Creativity, Expression, and the Ar","cbCaifVetb2tW3mq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifVetb2tW3mq","pdf",217451,"English","# Course Overview\n## Course Title and Structure\n## Standards, Graduation, and A-G Designation\n# Instructional Materials and Description\n## Required and Supplemental Resources\n## Course Description and Learning Objectives\n# Themes and Assessment\n## Core Themes\n## Grading Guidelines\n# Course Content--Scope and Sequence\n## Unit 1: Origins of the African Diaspora","[{\"question\":\"What grade levels and course length apply to AP African American Studies?\",\"answer\":\"The course is designed for grades 10–12 and runs for a year.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the course develop student skills?\",\"answer\":\"Students apply interdisciplinary lenses and build historical, literary, visual, and data analysis skills through analysis of text-based, data, and visual sources.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the core themes that guide the course units?\",\"answer\":\"The core themes are Migration and the African Diaspora, Intersections of Identity, Creativity, Expression, and the Arts, and Resistance and Resilience.\"}]","Advanced Placement African American Studies - Course of Study - Interdisciplinary | PDF",1789894912,25]
