AP United States History Summer Assignment

2015-2016 AP United States History Summer Assignment Syllabus A 2015-2016 syllabus has been provided for two reasons: so students know what textbooks to purchase over the summer to complete the summer assignment, and for you and your family to become familiar with the basic ideas and pace of the class, but the professor reserves the right to change the syllabus before the 2015-2016 school year starts. The Henretta text is provided by the school and must be picked up before the 2014-2015 school year ends, the Davis and Krieger texts must be purchased by the student. An updated 2015-2016 syllabus will be provided on the first day of school in August 2015. Sample Papers A sample Chapter Study Guide, vocab quiz, and a sample homework document with responses have been provided so that students can get a feel for what the professor is looking for in order to receive full credit for these assignments. These samples are from future assignments in the class and will be collected on the first day of school. They should not be plagiarized when those assignments are due during the school year.

Statement of student responsibility for information in the syllabus Due to the rigorous curriculum and demands of the course, diligent and consistent preparation by the student is absolutely necessary for success. The class will operate as a seminar, with heavy emphasis on discussion, analysis, critical thinking and thoughtful writing. Student Responsibility for the College Policies included in the College Catalog and the Student Handbook Students dual-enrolled in Gateway Community College HIS 103 and HIS 104 are responsible for Gateway Community College policies, in addition to class and high school policies. These policies can be found in the Gateway College Catalog & Student Handbook: (http://www.gatewaycc.edu/catalog//) Information about the availability of services for students that require special accommodations While Greenway High School has its own mechanisms for dealing with disabilities, at Gateway we provide the following information: The Disabled Student Services Office provides reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities. A student in need of accommodations should contact Emily Bluestein, Director of Disability Student Services at 602 286 8170 Information included in the Syllabus may be subject to Change Students will be notified by the instructor of any changes in course requirements or policies as they arise. Liberal Arts Courses Students in Liberal Arts courses develop a dialectical approach to thinking through a variety of learning strategies including discussion. In order to have meaningful discussions, students are expected to listen and communicate respectfully. They are encouraged to consider a broad spectrum of viewpoints, and to support their own ideas with appropriate evidence and relevant logical reasoning. Liberal Arts courses support the ability to learn from reading independently and writing to learn, communicate and organize thoughts. Academic Misconduct Plagiarism is a serious offense and will not be tolerated in this class. Simply stated, plagiarism is considered to be any attempt by a student to steal the work or ideas of another and pass it off as his/her own work. Plagiarism includes, but is not limited to, copying the homework of another student, looking off the paper of a student during a test or quiz, or reproducing information from the internet. If a student is guilty of plagiarism on any assignment, the student (or students) will receive a 0 for the assignment and a U in citizenship. All types of academic misconduct associated with the classroom and other course related activities includes, but is not limited to, cheating and plagiarism. Refer to the GWCC Catalog & Student Handbook regarding academic misconduct and sanctions.

Classroom Disruption Students are expected to show respect for the educational process in the classroom. It is the instructor s responsibility to maintain the educational process for all enrolled students. Behavior which disrupts the learning environment and/or hampers the ability of other students to learn, and of instructors to teach, will not be tolerated. Students who disrupt the educational process may be removed from class. Refer to the GWHS Student Handbook and the GWCC Student Handbook for policies regarding Disciplinary Standards. Visitors Office Hours No unregistered persons, including children, are permitted in class. I coach two sports at Greenway High School: Wrestling and Track and Field. During the Winter and Spring seasons after school office hours might be limited to one day a week, but morning office hours will not be effected. Office hours will be posted on our class website weekly to reflect practice schedules and competitions for the sports mentioned above. Electronic Devices Due to the disruptive nature of electronic devices such as cell phones, ipods, MP3 players, etc., use of these devices will be prohibited in class. Conferences You are welcome to arrange an appointment to talk with me at any time outside of class. I am typically available before school starts from 7:15-8:00, but it is best to arrange a specific meeting time with me in advance. Parents may also reach me by email at brandon.irwin@guhsdaz.org.
