1 horas de clase por semanaTarea
1 hora por semana. Weekly materials will be posted in the classroom, with most being digital-friendly and a select few requiring printing. For those who prefer not to print, PDFs will be available to view on your device. Brief, independent assignments will often extend outside classroom time due to our packed agenda. Every learner will get at least one week to complete assignments and will receive advanced notice for larger projects. Homework, necessary for a deeper understanding, will be light—expect about 30 to 60 minutes per week. It's important to note that learners have varying speeds and styles of learning, and this may reflect in the time taken to complete tasks. Completing these assignments diligently on one's own time will not only reinforce the material discussed in class but will also prepare learners for more engaging and productive class experience. For digital worksheets, please refer to the 'Materials' section, which contains a list of third-party websites where they can be accessed.Evaluación
Upon request and prior to the start of the course, assessments can be conducted throughout the course to evaluate learner progress and understanding. These assessments may include quizzes, tests, projects, feedback and/or other forms of evaluation (i.e. letter grade). Parents and learners are encouraged to discuss their grading preferences with the teacher. The purpose of assessments and grades is to provide feedback on student learning and measure their achievement. It is important for learners to actively participate in assessments and seek feedback to gauge their progress and areas of improvement. Furthermore, a detailed rubric will be provided specifically for the project. This rubric will serve as a guideline to assess and evaluate the quality and creativity of the learners' project. It will outline the criteria and expectations, ensuring transparency and fairness in the assessment process. Learners will have a clear understanding of the criteria by which their projects will be evaluated, allowing them to strive for excellence in their projects.Letra de calificación

Navigate the Cold War & Beyond—Where History Meets Strategy! In this self-paced, full-curriculum course, learners step into history’s most pivotal moments—from the Yalta Conference to the Space Race, the Korean and Vietnam Wars, and struggles for independence in Africa and Asia. Through interactive simulations and hands-on projects, students will analyze Cold War tensions, global conflicts, and political turning points that continue to shape the world today. 🔹 Lead high-stakes decisions in Cold War simulations 🔹 Investigate historical mysteries in the Cold War Conspiracy Theory Project 🔹 Get hands-on with history in the optional PEEPS Diorama Project By the end, learners won’t just know history—they’ll connect it to today’s global challenges. Flexible, interactive, and engaging—this isn’t just history, it’s an adventure! ******************************************************** *Heads-Up: This Class is NOT a Spectator Sport! This isn’t your typical sit-back-and-zone-out history class—your learner is part of the action! Whether we’re diving into simulations, debates, or critical-thinking challenges, their participation is what makes this class engaging, exciting, and, well… not just another lecture! That said, if participation turns into radio silence, we’ll have to shift into a lecture-style format to ensure all key material is covered. But let’s be real—that’s way less fun. So, encourage your learner to jump in, share their thoughts, make decisions, and engage! The more they put into this experience, the more they'll get out of it (and the less likely we are to drift into Lecture Land). **Another Heads-Up: Punctuality Matters! This class runs on engagement and interaction, so arriving on time is key! While late arrivals are always welcome to jump in, we won’t be able to restart simulations or backtrack on missed activities—there’s just too much to cover. To get the most out of the experience (and avoid feeling lost mid-simulation), being on time is strongly encouraged. Help your learner hit the ground running from the start—it makes for a smoother, more immersive class for everyone! ***Be Prepared & Ready to Dive In! Each week, all required materials will be posted in the classroom—most are digital-friendly, with a few that may need printing. If printing isn’t your thing, no worries! PDFs can be easily viewed on your device. Bringing materials to class ensures a smooth, engaging experience—so have everything ready, and let’s make history come alive! ************************************************ *********2025 Wednesdays (1:30 PM Central) Tentative Schedule********* Modern World History Jan 29: WWII: European Battles & Wartime Technology Feb 5: WWII: Pacific Battles & Wartime Technology **Feb 12: No Class Feb 26: WWII: From the Holocaust to Hiroshima Cold War Era & Beyond Mar 5: Intro to the Cold War & Decolonization of Africa Mar 12: Intro to the Cold War & Partition of India Mar 19: Korean War & Chinese Civil War Mar 26: Korean War & Rise of Communist China Apr 2: The Space Race & History of Cuba Apr 9: Cuban Missile Crisis & Cuba's Revolutions Apr 16: Arab Nationalism & Israeli-Palestine Conflict Apr 23: Detente & Fall of the USSR Apr 30: Global Interdependence & International Organizations May 7: Cold War Era Conspiracy Theory Projects** *********2025 Thursdays (9:15 AM Central) Tentative Schedule********* Modern World History Aug 19: Industrial Revolution & Innovations Aug 26: Industrial Revolution & Effects **Sept 2: No Class Sept 9: Industrial Ideologies & Reform Sept 16: Imperialism: Motives & Consequences Sept 23: Imperialism: Influence, Trade & Resistance Sept 30: WWI: Triggers, Technology & Trenches Oct 7: WWI: Triggers, Technology & Trenches Oct 14: WWI: July Crisis & Key Battles Oct 21: Treaty of Versailles: Leaders & Legacy Oct 28: Russian Revolution & Nationalist Movements Nov 4: The Road to War: Tension, Ambitions & Appeasement Nov 11: The Road to War: Tension, Ambitions & Appeasement Nov 18: WWII: European Battles & Wartime Technology Nov 25: WWII: Pacific Battles & Wartime Technology Dec 2: WWII: From the Holocaust to Hiroshima Dec 9: Peep-Into History: Modern Diorama Project* **Dec 16 - Jan 6: No Class Cold War Era & Beyond Jan 7: Intro to the Cold War & Decolonization of Africa Jan 14: Intro to the Cold War & Partition of India Jan 21: Korean War & Chinese Civil War Jan 28: Korean War & Rise of Communist China Feb 3: The Space Race & History of Cuba Feb 10: Cuban Missile Crisis & Cuba's Revolutions Feb 17: Cuban Missile Crisis Feb 24: Vietnam War & Other Proxy Wars Mar 3: Vietnam War Mar 10: Arab Nationalism & Israeli-Palestine Conflict Mar 17: Detente & Fall of the USSR Mar 23: Global Interdependence & International Organizations Mar 31: Cold War Era Conspiracy Theory Projects** ******************************************************** Want a Self-Paced Class Option? This course is also offered as two self-paced classes!

While my courses can be taken in any order based on individual preferences and needs, I would highly recommend taking them in chronological order. This sequencing allows for a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter and enhances the learning experience. Therefore, I suggest following this chronological order for optimal learning: 📜 World History: Ancient & Classical Civilizations 🏛 ⚔️ World History: Medieval & Early Modern Era 🎨 🌍 World History: Modern Era, Cold War & Beyond 🛰️ Following this order helps learners see the evolution of ideas, societies, and historical events over time, creating a cohesive and engaging learning experience. That said, you’re free to start wherever fits your interests and learning goals—history should be flexible and fun!

The study of world history encompasses a wide range of topics, including some sensitive subjects from the past such as war, slavery, racism, religion, and genocide. In this course, it is important to approach these topics with sensitivity and respect.
Religion will be discussed solely in its historical context, focusing on its influence on societies and events throughout history. The aim is to provide learners with an understanding of how religion shaped various civilizations without promoting any particular religious beliefs.
To foster a comprehensive understanding, learners will be exposed to multiple perspectives through the use of peer-reviewed and scholarly sources. Critical and reflective thinking will be encouraged, allowing students to analyze historical events, conflicts, security issues, religious influences, and economic factors from different angles.
Discussions in the classroom will be closely moderated, ensuring a balanced and unbiased approach. The teacher will facilitate discussions, encourage participation, and monitor the conversations to maintain a secular standpoint that respects all viewpoints.
When relevant, viewpoints from marginalized groups will be explored, providing a broader understanding of history from different social, cultural, and ethnic perspectives. This approach promotes inclusivity and helps learners develop empathy and a deeper appreciation for diverse experiences.
Great care will be taken to present the content in an age-appropriate manner, ensuring that the material is accessible, respectful, and suitable for the maturity level of the learners.
