This understanding is advanced through a combination of selective factual knowledge and appropriate analytical skills. This course highlights the nature of changes in international frameworks and their causes and consequences, as well as comparisons among major societies. It emphasizes relevant factual knowledge used in conjunction with leading interpretive issues and types of historical evidence. The course builds on an understanding of cultural, institutional and technological precedents that, along with geography, set the human stage. Students will discuss periodization, which forms an organizing principle for dealing with change and continuity throughout the course. Six specific themes provide further organization and consistent attention to contacts among societies that form the core of World History as a field of study. |  |\n| Required Instructional Materials\u003Cbr>World History. 5th ed. , William Duiker, Jackson Spielvogel, Thomson/Wadsworth Publishers, 2007 | Completion/ Revision Date\u003Cbr>Approved by the Board of Education on March 17, 2007 |\n\n\n| Mission Statement of the Curriculum Management Team |\n| --- |\n| The mission of the Social Studies Curriculum Management Team is to provide students with the opportunity to gain fundamental understanding of history, civics, economics, cultures, geography, and the social sciences so that they develop into responsible citizens who use analytical reasoning and historical thinking to make informed decisions about the issues that face our nation and world today. |\n\n\n| Enduring Understandings for the Course |\n| --- |\n| Students will understand that: |\n| Content |\n| · Reoccurring themes of change and continuity throughout world history lead to a better understanding of contemporary society. |\n| · Trade, war , diplomacy, and international organizations exhibit patterns among societies and regions throughout history and in today’s world. |\n| · Advancements and changes in technology, the economy, demographics, and the environment have impacted the evolution of society. |\n| · Systems of social structure and gender issues reveal major differences within and among societies. |\n\nAP World History Page 1  \n\n| · | Cultural, intellectual, and religious developments among and within societies reveal significant differences. |\n| --- | --- |\n| · | Changes in functions and structures of states, in attitudes toward states, and in political identities have had a significant impact on our world today. |\n|  | Skills |\n| · | Analyzing data is critical for problem solving. |\n| · | Determining linkages/cause and effect relationships is essential. |\n| · | Readers use strategies to construct meaning. |\n| · | Formulating hypotheses based on a variety of data and source materials enhances problem solving. |\n| · | Communicating clearly and effectively with both the written and spoken word is essential. |\n| · | Authors write for different purposes. |\n| · | Mastering test taking skills is essential to success in the Advanced Placement program. |\n| · | Using technology is an effective tool for collecting, organizing , and presenting information. |\n\nAP World History Page 2  \n\n| \u003Cbr>LEARNING STRAND\u003Cbr>1.0 Critical Thinking and Communication Skills\u003Cbr>NOTE: This learning strand should be taught through the integration of the other learning strands included in this course.
