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 research-based 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.  \nSkills  \nThis course’s purpose is not to cover mere content and learned information but a specific set of skills; development and demonstration of these skills is essential to score a B or an A in the class. These skills (referred to as ‘QUEST’ in the Capstone curricular requirements) are identified below:  \n􀁸 Question and Explore – Questioning begins with an initial exploration of complex topics or issues. Perspectives and questions emerge that spark one’s curiosity, leading to an investigation that challenges and expands the boundaries of one’s current knowledge.  \n􀁸 Understand and Analyze Arguments – Understanding various perspectives requires contextualizing arguments and evaluating the author’s claims and lines of reasoning.  \n􀁸 Evaluate Multiple Perspectives – Evaluating an issue involves considering and evaluating multiple perspectives both individually and in comparison to one another.  \n􀁸 Synthesize Ideas – Synthesizing others’ ideas with one’s own may lead to new understandings and is the foundation of a well-reasoned argument that conveys one’s perspective.  \n􀁸 Team, Transform, and Transmit – Teaming allows one to combine personal strengths and talents with those of others to reach a common goal. Transformation and growth occur upon thoughtful reflection. Transmitting requires the adaptation of one’s message based on audience and context.  \nResearch  \nAs the AP Seminar program engages students in college-level work, the AP Seminar course may include perspectives that could be considered controversial, including references to ethnicity, nationality, religion, politics, race, dialect, sexuality, gender, or class. AP Seminar requires students to have the level of maturity and skill to thoughtfully consider and analyze diverse perspectives. The inclusion of topics, readings, texts, and other source material is not intended as an endorsement by the College Board, the school, or the instructor of the content, ideas, or values expressed in the material.  \n[bentonenglish.com](bentonenglish.com | Teacher:)[ | Teacher:](bentonenglish.com | Teacher:) Roddy Benton | Year: 2016-2017  \n[bentonenglish.com](bentonenglish.com | Teacher:)[ | Teacher:](bentonenglish.com | Teacher:) Roddy Benton | Year: 2016-2017  \nPerformance Tasks  \nDuring the AP Seminar Course, students complete the following performance assessments: two through-course performance tasks and an end-of-course exam, while adhering to the College Board’s policies to ensure the validation of scores.  \nPerformance Task \\#1 (Team Project and Presentation)  \nIn the Team Project and Presentation, students work collaboratively with a team of 4 or 5 to identify, investigate, analyze, and evaluate a real-world or academic problem or issue; consider ","cbCaithVP8K3WHiH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaithVP8K3WHiH","pdf",600518,"English","# Overview\n# Skills\n## Question and Explore\n## Understand and Analyze Arguments\n## Evaluate Multiple Perspectives\n## Synthesize Ideas\n## Team, Transform, and Transmit\n# Research\n# Performance Tasks\n## Performance Task #1 (Team Project and Presentation)\n## Performance Task #2 (Individual Research-Based Essay and Presentation)","[{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of AP Seminar in this syllabus?\",\"answer\":\"Students develop evidence-based, credible arguments by analyzing real-world issues from multiple perspectives and synthesizing information from varied sources.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the QUEST skills referenced in the course requirements?\",\"answer\":\"QUEST includes Question and Explore, Understand and Analyze Arguments, Evaluate Multiple Perspectives, Synthesize Ideas, and Team, Transform, and Transmit.\"},{\"question\":\"What performance tasks must students complete?\",\"answer\":\"Students complete two through-course performance tasks plus an end-of-course exam.
