Schmalbach 2010 Revision., Amsco School Publications, 2003 COURSE DESCRIPTION The AP program in United States History is designed to provide students with the analytical skills and factual knowledge necessary to deal critically with the problems and materials in United States history. The program prepares students for intermediate and advanced college

courses by making demands upon them equivalent to those made by full-year introductory college courses. Students will learn to assess historical materials, their relevance to a given interpretive problem, their reliability, and their importance; and to weigh the evidence and interpretations presented in historical scholarship. An AP United States History course should thus develop the skills necessary to arrive at conclusions on the basis of an informed judgment and to present reasons and evidence clearly and persuasively in an essay format. Furthermore, students will develop: 1. their ability to understand and respect other points of view, both personal and cultural. Included within this should be the ability to understand peoples of different races and cultures and show respect for human diversity and for students varied talents and perspectives. Also, students should explore the interaction among peoples of different races and cultures and how such interaction has shaped United States and world history. 2. an informed historical perspective, including an understanding of how one's own society developed, and an awareness of how other societies developed. 3. their understanding the major ways that science and technology have affected humans and their world. 4. their understanding of the power and limitations of science and technology in a changing world; awareness of how societies, institutions, and individuals are responsible to see that technology is used ethically and appropriately. 5. their understanding of the influence of geographic characteristics, including climate, physical features and natural resources, on North America's major societies and cultures. 6. their understanding of the context of current events from a historical perspective with the ability to connect modern trends to past events. 7. their understanding of current events from an international perspective. 8. their ability to integrate into the curriculum a wide variety of materials as well as human and technological resources, including primary documents, texts, maps, graphs, charts, and other resources. 9. their understanding of the concept of change over time with the ability to relate past to present. 10. their understanding of the major events and movements in American history, the turning points of historical development, and their relationship to the present. 11. their understanding of cultural and individual diversity, and humankind s shared environment, heritage, and responsibility. 12. their ability to explore critical eras in the historical development of the world in the following spheres of human activity: social, political, scientific, military, technological, economic, and cultural (philosophical, religious, and aesthetic). 13. the ability to apply the techniques of historical interpretation including cause and effect, major trends, change over time, etc. 14. their ability to use knowledge of the civilization of the United States to develop in themselves the skills of thinking, reasoning, problem solving, and decision making. 15. an informed historical perspective, including an understanding of how one s own society developed and an awareness of how other societies developed. Additional Student Learning Outcomes: 1. In the process of fulfilling assignments in the course, students will have opportunity to demonstrate and improve the quality of their critical thinking, reading, and writing abilities. 2. In the process of fulfilling assignments in the course, the student will be able to identify important individuals and events that have contributed to the development of American history. 3. In the process of fulfilling assignments in the course, students will learn to critically and analytically read historical works and primary sources. 4. In the process of fulfilling assignments in the course, will begin to understand the connection between the United States and Western Civilization in addition to the global community.

MATERIALS Notebook, no. 2 pencils, blue/black pens, Spiral Note Cards various materials needed for projects. I expect you to come to class prepared. You will not be allowed to leave the room to get any materials or homework forgotten. HOMEWORK Advanced Placement courses are demanding and require daily homework. Students planning to earn a score of 4 or 5 will spend a MINIMUM of SEVEN hours per week studying. Begin planning and preparing now to take the A.P. exam in May. Homework is mainly reading and NOT daily written work or take-home worksheets. There will be a quiz each Monday on the previous week s chapter reading. The bonus to the student is that they can plan their own study time to more easily match their schedule. The pitfall is that the student can easily slack off and, after 7-10 days, fall rapidly behind. All assignments are given in advance to allow students to organize their time. The College Board s AP US History curriculum demands a tight schedule. Every effort will be made to strictly adhere to the syllabus. GRADING Grading for AP will be on a point system. Points are totaled to determine the grade for each grading period. The scale is listed below. Once work is graded, it will be returned to them. It is advised that students NOT THROW ANYTHING AWAY. Inadequate and poor planning on the student s part does not constitute an emergency on the teacher s part. In short, if you see you are behind and NEED an A, plan better and study harder. GRADING SCALE: 93-100% = A, 90-92.9% = A-, 87-89.9% = B+, 83-87.9% = B, 80-82.9% = B-, 77-79.9% = C+, 73-77.9% = C, 70-72.9% = C-, 67-69.9% = D+, 63-67.9% = D, 60-62.9% = D-, 0-59.9% = F. GRADE COMPONENTS: Weekly Chapter Quiz = 5-10 points Document Analysis = 10-20 points Notecards = 10 points (readings and analysis of selected primary source readings) Booknotes = from text, 25 points Free Response Essay = 50 points (These will be announced at least two days in advance) Unit Multiple Choice Tests = 30-50 points DBQ Essay = 50 points Final Exam = 10% of the semester grade Unit Projects = 30-50 points Other Important Items: Late work: Late work WILL NOT be accepted without making prior arrangements with Mr. Anderson. If for some reason an extension of time is needed on an assignment, Mr. Anderson must be contacted vie email or face-to-face before the start of the school day the day the assignment is due. If an extension of time is needed on a large assignment or project Mr. Anderson must be contact at least 3 days before the due date.

Attendance: Attendance is very important. Attending class closely relates to performance in class. It is your responsibility to find out what you missed when you were absent. I will not spend time hunting you down. The school s policy for absences and tardies will be closely followed. Cell Phones/iPods/Electronic Devices: Cells/iPods/Electronics are not to be used or seen in this classroom. If you are caught using a cell phone in class, I will take it away. Hall Passes: No one will be allowed to leave the class during the first and last 10 minutes of the class. If you need to use the hall pass you must ask Mr. Anderson. If the pass is abused, it will result in loss of the pass for the whole class. Cheating/ Over Collaborating(copying another students work)/ Plagiarism: If a student is found cheating, over collaborating on a project or an assignment, or plagiarizing a paper or speech, that student will be given a zero, no questions asked. RESPECT Treat others as you would treat your grandmother. This includes yourself, other students, teachers, and staff members. Due the Graphic Nature of Some Parts of US History: we will be watching segments of some films to supplement the learning that are graphic in nature. If you have concerns or would like a list of film segments please feel free to contact Mr. Anderson Reserve/Substitute Teacher Policy When there is a sub in the room, you are expected to behave as if your regular teacher were here. This means that you are quiet, listen, follow directions, and are respectful. Should your attitude or behavior be inappropriate (as deemed so by the sub), the sub will tell me. In the event that your name is left for me, you will owe me one class period after school. You will be expected to make this time up within 3 school days. There are no excuses. Liquids: Only pop, soda, water, and juice with a cap allowed in class. Food maybe eaten in class as long as it does not disrupt the class. THEMES OF AP US HISTORY COVERED IN THIS COURSE 1.
