1 Instructor Mr. Matthew Amato Flanders, Samohi Class of 1989, B.A. UCSB (History), M.Ed. UCLA Materials A People and A Nation (School Provided, to be brought to class daily) 3 Ring Notebook Paper Pens/pencils (multiple colors) Outside reading book (TBD) Course Description AP United States History is a challenging course that is meant to be the equivalent of a freshman college course and can earn students college credit. It is a two-semester survey of United States history from the colonial period to the present. Solid reading and writing skills, along with a willingness to devote considerable time to homework and study, are necessary to succeed. Emphasis is placed on critical and evaluative thinking skills, essay writing, and interpretation of original documents. A college textbook is used in the course and an average assignment consists of 10 to 12 pages. Students will also be trained in note-taking skills as most of the classes are lectures. Throughout the year, students will be introduced to typical questions used on the AP Exam which is administered in May. Several weeks are spent in intensive review preparing students to take the exam. All students enrolled in the course are required to take the AP Exam. A final exam is also given at the end of the course. There is a charge for the AP Exam (approximately $80.00) but when you consider a passing grade may earn college credit, the cost is minimal. Even if a student fails to achieve a passing score on the AP Exam, the experience of taking a college course is immeasurable Each AP U.S. History Examination is three hours and ten minutes in length and has both a multiple choice and a freeresponse section. Fifty-five minutes are allotted for Part I, the multiple choice section, which contains 80 questions and accounts for 50 percent of the composite score. Part II, the free-response section, consists of a required 15-minute reading period, a required document-based question for which 45 minutes are recommended, and an essay section in which students select one question from each of two groups of questions. Thirty-five minutes are allotted for each of the essays. The DBQ and the essays account for 50 percent of the composite score. Course Goals Master a broad body of historical knowledge Demonstrate an understanding of historical chorology Use historical data to support an argument or position Differentiate between historiographical schools of thought Interpret and apply data from primary documents Effectively use analytical skills of evaluation, cause and effect, compare and contrast Work effectively with others to produce products and solve problems Prepare for and successfully pass the AP US History Exam Grade Breakdown 1 st Semester Article Reviews = 10% Book Review = 5% Chapter Outlines 30% Midterms 25% Binderwork 20% VERSION 8/4/12 1 of 12
