1 Advanced Placement United States Government Mr. Snyder School Year AP United States Government and Politics is an intensive study of the formal and informal structures of government and the processes of the American political system, with an emphasis on policy making and implementation. This course is designed to prepare students for the AP Exam; it explores the political theory and everyday practice that direct the daily operation of our government and shape our public policies. The course is for all intents and purposes taught on a college level, and it requires a substantial amount of reading and preparation for every class. The objectives of this course go beyond a basic analysis of how our government works. Students will develop a critical understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the American political system, as well as their rights and responsibilities as citizens. Teaching Strategies and Activities: This course is divided between lecture, project and Socratic Seminar. Students are responsible for keeping up with events in the news. Each class begins with a discussion of current events (public policy, international relations, etc.). The current events provide concrete connections for each lesson. TEXT: Lake County provides a U.S. Government and Politics textbook. Suggested additional Texts: Edwards, George C., Martin P. Wattenberg, and Robert L. Lineberry. Government in America: People, Politics, and Policy, 10th ed. New York: Long man, Supplemental Text Woll, Peter. American Government: Readings and Cases, 15th ed. New York: Long man, Other Materials Assigned and used in class: articles from current newspapers, such as The New York Times, The Washington Post or The Wall Street Journal; news magazine excerpts from Time, Newsweek, or The Economist; news footage and documentaries (Fox News, CNBC, CNN, caveat emptor); C-SPAN s coverage and current events materials; numerous websites.
2 STUDENT RESPONSIBILITES AND EXPECTATIONS The work done in this course is college level and it is expected that all students will treat it as such. A significant amount of coursework shall be done outside the classroom walls. Students are expected to participate fully, both in class and out, and to work diligently to get the most out of the course. The following are the basic expectations and responsibilities for all students: Regular attendance is imperative being in class guarantees that you will participate in an array of activities and discussion that cannot be done otherwise. If class is missed for any reason, students are responsible with keeping up with the course on days absent and must work diligently to keep up, especially in the notebooks which will be collected and graded every two weeks. All coursework will be submitted on the due date. If the late work is associated with an excused absence, all work is due the day the student returns to class; if unexcused, no credit will be given. Assigned readings, including chapter readings, will be completed on time and students will be prepared for substantive discussions upon entering the classroom. Since this is the beginning of a Presidential Election cycle the students will be expected to read and watch debates, commercials, editorials and perform original research on the candidates. Student work shall be done in conjunction with the notion that it benefits the whole. Much of what we do in this class is collaborative and will be shared. Consider what you do to be an integral component of your classmates education in addition to your own. Students will spend ample time outside of class preparing for the AP US Government and Politics Exam. This is done in supplementation to all coursework completed both in and out of the classroom and will invariably help in understanding the world in which you are soon to embark.
3 COURSEWORK AND REQUIREMENTS As stated above, all coursework is college-level. Below are descriptions of the overall coursework students can expect to engage in. Textbook readings: Students will be assigned textbook chapters in conjunction with the course of units of study. Students will be expected to complete all accompanying assignments in a timely manner and should be prepared to supplement our discussing with readings from other sources; i.e. Edwards and Woll texts. Supplemental readings: In addition to the textbook, students will frequently be assigned other reading relating to the current unit of study. Students will often be required to be prepared to discuss and/or apply the readings to other activities within the course. Vocabulary Flash Cards: vocabulary associated with American government and politics will be emphasized throughout the course. Students will be responsible through various assignments for incorporating and highlighting important vocabulary terms and applying them to real-world contexts. All students will create their own flashcards as we move through each unit. They must have their flashcards at all times for random checks/grades. Guidelines to follow. In-class discussions: Students will participate and contribute substantively to discussions carried out in class. Fundamentals of American government and politics and important and controversial issues will be among the discussion topics. Current events portfolio: all students are required to maintain a current event portfolio in their notebooks. The students must add a new story to their portfolio each week, providing commentary and making connections to the course and current unit of study. Once again, this will be randomly checked and graded guidelines to follow. Political data, graph, and cartoon analysis: a fundamental skill required in todays world is the ability to read and interpret various charts, graphs, and data relevant to the political system and process. Understanding and interpreting political cartoons has also become very important as more and more candidates are turning to these amusements to reach their audience. The students will be expected to develop these skills and evaluate the effectiveness of these devices. Essays: students will be required to write 1-3 page pieces analyzing relevant concepts, issues, and events. Some will be done in class, others outside. Projects/simulations: students will have the opportunity to engage in research projects, presentations, debates, and simulations on various topics related to the course. Some projects will be individual while others will require significant group collaboration. Research project and presentation: Once the AP Exam has concluded, students will work in pairs to research a timely topic or issue relevant to the course and create and deliver a presentation to the class. This is the culminating course project and will comprise, unless the County/State develops a required EOC, the Final Exam Grade. PLEASE be aware that this project usually makes up 60+% of the final marking period grade.

12 Writing Component Students must answer numerous free response questions with essays that demonstrate their ability to analyze and interpret the structure and actors within American government and politics. These essays prepare you for the essay section of the A P U.S. Government and Politics Exam. Essays are given in class and in take home format, and they are due approximately every one to two weeks. Dates and point values will be announced when the assignment is given. I would begin working on the third example, especially the last book review, immediately. Some example assignments: 1. On demand (Timed) Writing: Using the following court cases as examples, explain the evolution of federalism in the United States. Be sure to explain the facts of each case as they apply to federalism. McCulloch v. Maryland Gibbons v. Ogden Brown v. Board of Education Printz v. U.S., Mack v. U.S. 2. Trans-active writing: Write a letter to your senator or representative urging support or opposition to the Patriot Act. A successful trans-active piece must show a clear and timely purpose and be written in appropriate language for the intended audience. 3. Book Review(s): Each student must read one book on modern politics. Students with conservative ideologies must read a book written by a more liberal author. Students with liberal ideologies must read a book written by a more conservative author. Your book review should be three to five pages in length and should include the following: A brief summary of the book, including specific examples taken from the book An analysis of the author s purpose in writing the book, including evidence used by the author to support his or her position An evaluation of the validity of the arguments are they logical? Are they convincing? A recommendation of this book to who m would you recommend this book and why *Your second book review will also be one of modern politics, this time one with the same ideology as you in which you include the same materials. *Your third book will be one of great importance. The book must deal with the interrelationships of The Four Institutions of Federal Government. Not only must you discuss their working relationships but also their relationships to: Public opinion and the voters Interest groups o Political parties The media State and local government
13 CURRENT EVENT PROCEDURE Current events are an integral component to studying and applying the fundamental concepts of United States Government and the political system. The idea behind this assignment is to afford students the opportunity to follow important events and issues arising in the United States and provide commentary and insight, making connections to AP US Government and Politics course content. DIRECTIONS (first, let me say, if Lake County allows, I will have you set up a wikispaces (preferred) or google blogger site rather than a page in your notebooks but we will cross that bridge as the school year proceeds). Create a section dedicated to this assignment, titling it AP United States Government Current Events Portfolio. A minimum of one current event per week is required and must be in place each and every Monday beginning August 25 th. You must include the following information in each post. 1. The date of your post 2. Current unit of study 3. A general headline or topic title (it can be the headline of the news story). 4. If found on line, the link to the article; if in print, the precise location. Please properly cite the reference (I suggest using Knightcite.com.) 5. A brief synopsis of the story or issue (at least a paragraph giving the basic: who, what, where, when, how, and why of the story, including its importance. 6. A more detail analysis providing your own insight into the story or issue, including connections to what we re learning in class. 7. Any vocabulary from the current or previous units used in the synopsis and analysis should be bolded and highlighted. Spend some time personalizing and tailoring the section to your own tastes. A minimum of six (6) entries are required for each marking period.
14 FLASHCARDS ASSIGNMENT An important component of understanding our government and the political process is to be familiar with and be able to apply an array of vocabulary terms and concepts. This is also fundamental to doing well on the AP Exam and going forward in the great big old world that is beckoning. DIRECTIONS: You are charged with creating your own flashcards for each unit of study. You will create them on your own time and follow your own organizational style. You must carry these flashcards with you in a baggy or zip-lock bag at all times. Obviously, your stack of flashcards and the bag in which they are carried will grow significantly as the semester progresses. The following are the basic requirements for this assignment: Your flashcards are subject to random checks in class, each check being worth 10 points which CANNOT be made up, unless it is an excused absence, at which point they are due the first day in class. There is an associated Midterm and pre-final grade that will be associated with the cards. The Midterm will be the day before Christmas break, the pre-final, and the day after the AP Exam. May be replaced by Journal/Notebook Vocabulary we will decide the first week of school.
15 Below is an outline of the AP US Government and Politics Exam with corresponding approximate percentages for the multiple choice section of the exam. Please note I have designated where in our course you should pay special attention to: your assignments, my presentations, and your areas of interest. Please note that although I only list Unit 1 once, its impact on the entire US government should be known without any question. The free response (essay) portion of the exam will cover all areas.

17 POLITICAL ISSUES FINAL PROJECT PURPOSE: To afford AP United States Government and Politics students the opportunity to examine in-depth a particular political issue that is both timely and relevant and to lead fellow students in an in-depth discussion on that issue. DIRECTIONS: You will work with a partner or two to research, analyze, and lead a discussion on a significant political issue. You will spend a week researching and putting your discussion together. The final time will be allocated for each group to present their materials, lead a discussion on their presentation, and then debate the merits of their findings. Each group/individual will select one of the following on a first-come-first-served basis. Only one group will be allowed to work on a topic. Remember that you must elicit whole-class conversations. You should plan your presentation to meet the following required inclusions, who you choose to lead the discussion and debate is up to your group. Please feel free to use any supplemental material you feel necessary. You presentation must include: A strong way of introducing your topic Background information on the issue (a brief history, relevant statistics, etc.) Arguments/debate over the issue Relevance of the issue to American government and society (the connection to any relevant course concepts) Well-developed questions to ask the class as a way of leading the discussion in the direction(s) you want to go Be prepared to debate your finds; remember, no matter your take, I will be the devilsadvocate in each and every debate. We will establish the time limits once the AP Exam is over. The issues you will examine, you must develop your own focus question and present on the first day of preparation. 1. Should America adopt public financing of political campaigns? 2. Does Affirmative Action advance racial equality? 3. Do we need national health insurance? 4. Are Americans overtaxed? 5. Should border security come first in stopping illegal immigration? 6. Is indefinite detention of suspected terrorists justified? 7. Is the use of torture against terrorist suspects justified? 8.

19 PARENTAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The students will need to provide their own: 1. A notebook that can be divided into three sections and some method for maintaining handouts, returned assignments. I suggest a Loose Leaf Binder with pockets to store their work. 2. Paper 3. Pens (black or blue only) 4. 3 x 5 index cards The student is EXPECTED to be in class and have their assignments complete. This course is taught as if to college freshmen and I will not tolerate students neglecting their assignments nor conducting themselves in a manner unacceptable in a college classroom. The student is EXPECTED to be prepared. The quality of education begins and ends with the student as the center of the educational experience. Improvement on ALL levels helps to establish a sense of pride in who we are, and I expect every AP student to assist their fellow Panthers in achieving great heights. In today s world we are looked at, not as an individual, but as what we have achieved. College Admission offices look at what you have achieved, not so much clubs or sports, as everyone applying lists the same things, but what you have attempted to do! Have you bravely gone where no one has gone before? (Forgive this old Star Trek fan s fancy) I hope you will help us to develop a love of country, something that should be cherished, enjoyed, and preserved, not just for our lifetime, but all generations to come. As everyone who has ever been in my class or known me, please remember THE POWER IS (Y)OURS! I, the parent(s)/guardian(s) have reviewed this syllabus and have a general understanding of what is required of my/our child. If I have any questions at any time, I will contact Mr. Snyder personally at the school at , via at snyderp@lake.k12.fl.us.
