AP ヨーロッパ史ヘルプとレビュー

In this course, I will give sessions teaching the content of the AP European History course for students taking the AP exam in May. I spent the last two summers grading essays for the AP World History: Modern Exam for the College Board, and I feel that I can use this experience to help students in AP Euro succeed.

My hope for this course is that students that join will communicate in the class conversation board about what they might need extra help in, the unit you are currently working on in your school, anything that was not clear that you've learned before, or whatever else you may need. If students don't have any suggestions on topics needed to be covered in a particular meeting, I will have a lesson prepared that covers one section of the course that I think is especially necessary. Since this may be difficult with a larger class, I have capped the number of students in any particular meeting at six.

My teaching style is very engaging, using a large amount of student interaction and student-produced examples. Students are often asked to give self-references to concepts in order to enhance memory retrieval with important concepts. Students will be able to interact with each other and with me throughout the class.

Students joining this course should either already be part of an AP World History: Modern course or be actively self-studying in order to take the AP World History: Modern exam. I will make sure that content is presented as if it were the students' first time learning the information, so as to accommodate for students who may be learning the material at different times than others.

In the event that students do not give suggestions of topics to cover in these meetings, here is a schedule of topics that I will prepare for the first four weeks of meetings:

Week of December 13 - Unit 3 Review
Week of December 20 - Unit 4 Introduction
Week of December 27 - Unit 4 Topic 4
Week of January 3 - Unit 4 Review

For more information on the course, a description of the exam, and much more, the Course at a Glance and the Course and Exam Description (CED) are posted in the classroom so that all learners have access to this important information. Additional information is reposted below.

AP European History is an introductory college-level European history course. Students cultivate their understanding of European history through analyzing historical sources and learning to make connections and craft historical arguments as they explore concepts like interaction of Europe and the world; economic and commercial developments; cultural and intellectual developments; states and other institutions of power; social organization and development; national and European identity; and technological and scientific innovation.
