I have taught this AP course in a public high school in the south for 9 years. It is part of the designed Advanced Placement curriculum and I have been trained through the College Board on how to best handle these sensitive topics. I am a certified Advanced Placement Human Geography teacher on my valid SC teaching license and National Board Certified for Young Adolescents in Social Studies. I have also been an Advanced Placement Human Geography Reader for the past 6 years where these topics have been tested on the examination and I have scored.
Unit Reviews will be assigned between meetings. Students will be expected to complete the one-page review assignment prior to class in order to be prepared to discuss the content, ask questions, and engage in the classroom. Student time for homework will vary based on course preparation.
