020130, 020150, 133300, & 439251: WORLD HISTORY: PERSPECTIVES ON THE PAST COURSE PHILOSOPHY The purpose of World History: Perspectives on the Past is to provide each student with fundamental knowledge and skills necessary to understand the historical impact of individuals and events on the contemporary world. Students are provided with the stimulus and guidance that promote a thriving learning environment that enables all students to reach their potential. COURSE DESCRIPTION World History: Perspectives on the Past is designed with a thematic approach, to achieve the goal of making comparisons throughout time and space. The course focuses on important themes, ideologies and concepts, with content playing a supporting role. This requires students to develop their critical thinking, analytical, and interpretive skills. In addition, it requires students to understand that the challenges and issues facing the world today are not completely new. In fact, they have their roots in historical and cultural contexts. The course has four units of study, each dealing with a specific theme. Students consider essential questions that are directly linked to the standards prescribed in the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards and Common Core State Standards. COURSE SUMMARY COURSE GOALS CG1: Students will be able to transfer their understanding of writing skills so that on their own, they will be able to produce an argument supported through analysis and the use of multiple primary and secondary sources. CG2: Students will be able to transfer their understanding of primary and secondary source analysis so that on their own, they will be able to determine potential bias, understand the context of the time in which a source was written, and use the source in the support or refutation of an argument. CG3: Students will be able to transfer their understanding of geography s impact on a culture s development, and how revolutions often reflect a change in cultural values so that on their own, they will be able to describe how cultures evolved over time due to geography and revolution. CG4: Students will be able to transfer their understanding of the impact that revolutionary ideas and processes have on national and cultural identities so that, on their own, they will be able to determine conditions that bring about revolutions and social change.
