AP Seminar is a foundational course that engages students in cross-curricular conversations that explore the complexities of academic and real-world topics and issues by analyzing divergent perspectives. Using an inquiry framework, students practice reading and analyzing articles, research studies, and foundational, literary, and philosophical texts; listening to and viewing speeches, broadcasts, and personal accounts; and experiencing artistic works and performances. Students learn to synthesize information from multiple sources, develop their own perspectives in written essays, and design and deliver oral and visual presentations, both individually and as part of a team. Ultimately, the course aims to equip students with the power to analyze and evaluate information with accuracy and precision in order to craft and communicate evidence-based arguments.  \n2. This course has been structured to meet state standards and for students to successfully complete the yearly, national AP Seminar exam administered by the College Board each May. Throughout the program, students consider and evaluate multiple points of view to develop their own perspectives on complex issues and topics through inquiry and investigation. The AP Capstone Seminar/Research program provides students with a framework that allows them to develop, practice, and hone their critical and creative thinking skills as they make connections between various issues and their own lives. Students will understand that this process is recursive, not linear. The recursive nature of this process allows students to go back and forth between the different stages of inquiry as they encounter new information. Students need to have been recommended by their previous social studies teacher for admission to this course.  \nTime/Credit for the Course: 2 semesters: 1 credit Interdisciplinary Curriculum Writing Committee: Andrew Crawford and Laurence Marcial  \nCurriculum Map  \n1. Marking Period One-Overview with time range in days: 45 days  \nMarking Period One-Goals:  \nUnderstanding of:  \n Unit I: Introducing the Seminar’s QUEST Process and Entering the Conversation – The Roles of Women  \nStudents explore the complexities of one or more themes by making connections within, between, and/or among multiple cross-curricular areas and by exploring multiple perspectives and lenses (e.g., cultural and social, artistic and philosophical, political and historical, environmental, economic, scientific, futuristic, ethical) related to those themes. The core introductory theme will be the Role of Women. Students develop and apply discrete skills identified in the learning objectives of the enduring understandings within the following five big ideas:  \n› Question and Explore  \n› Understand and Analyze  \n› Evaluate Multiple Perspectives  \n› Synthesize Ideas  \n› Team, Transform, and Transmit.  \nStudents gain a rich appreciation and understanding of issues through the following activities: › reading articles and research studies; › reading foundational, literary, and philosophical texts; › viewing and listening to speeches, broadcasts, and/or personal accounts; › and experiencing artistic works and performances.  \nStudents develop an understanding of ethical research practices and the AP Capstone™ Policy on Plagiarism and Falsification or Fabrication of Information. Students work collaboratively with a team to identify, investigate, analyze, and evaluate a real-world or academic problem or issue; consider and evaluate alternatives or options; propose one or more solutions or resolutions; and present and defend the argument for their solutions through a multimedia p","cbCaincbwHow5M6W","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaincbwHow5M6W","pdf",425820,36,"English","# Course Overview\n## Course Description\n## Curriculum Map\n### Marking Period One\n#### Unit I: Introducing the Seminar’s QUEST Process and Entering the Conversation – The Roles of Women\n### Marking Period Two\n#### Unit II: Entering the Conversation – Race Relations in America","[{\"question\":\"What is the structure and credit value of the AP Capstone Seminar course?\",\"answer\":\"The course runs for two semesters and awards 1 credit as an interdisciplinary curriculum.\"},{\"question\":\"What skills and activities do students practice in AP Seminar?\",\"answer\":\"Students engage in inquiry-based reading and analysis, synthesize information across multiple sources, develop written essays, and create and defend oral and visual presentations.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the program address ethical research and academic integrity?\",\"answer\":\"Students learn ethical research practices and the AP Capstone Policy on Plagiarism and Falsification or Fabrication of Information.\"}]","Advanced Placement Seminar - Advanced Placement Capstone Seminar | PDF",91]
