Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
Not only does it provide college credit, if you pass the AP test with a 4 or better, but the class doesn't technically lecture, but provides more hands-on and group/partner projects that are helpful and useful in learning new information about world history and how it all connects.
Course highlights:
I definitely gained an excessive amount of knowledge about history of the world and different regions, and how each nation is associated with each other. In addition, I gained a basic understanding of different cultures around the world, which is always a good thing especially since the world is so interconnected now. But the highlights of the course were using many different sources to learn new information and material, such as: skits/plays, mock trials, movies, origami, writing poems, art, and etc...
Hours per week:
6-8 hours
Advice for students:
Be prepared for the amount of new material and work to come with this class. And a helpful tip would be actually participating in discussions or lectures, and doing homework and notes multiple days in a week instead of cramming everything into the night before they're due.
Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
The class itself allows the understanding of early civilizations and connects it to how the world today has developed. It broadens the understanding of ethnicities, cultures, and masses of nations and their beginning.
Course highlights:
The course allowed me to open my horizons to how the story of the human race and how it came to be. In my course specifically, my class and I were able to do what we called "mock" trials in which we would debate and act two major world events and see the event in many perspectives and gain much more knowledge.
Hours per week:
6-8 hours
Advice for students:
When taking notes learn to manage your time and if you don't understand an event make sure to clarify it because all events correlate and connect to one another the entire course.
