In 42 episodes, John Green will begin teaching you the history of the world! This course is based on the 2012 AP World History curriculum, from growing the first crops in the First Agricultural Revolution to global textile production in the 2010s. By the end of the course, you will be able to: *Identify and explain historical developments and processes *Analyze the context of historical events, developments, and processes and explain how they are situated within a broader historical context *Explain the importance of point of view, historical situation, and audience of a source *Analyze patterns and connections among historical developments and processes, both laterally and chronologically through history *Be a more informed citizen of the world
In 30 episodes, John Green rethinks world history! In round two we take a different approach and try to think more thematically rather than chronologically. By the end of the course, you will be able to: *Think about history thematically and in terms of systems, not just important events *Analyze the context of historical events, developments, and processes and explain how they are situated within a broader historical context *Explain the importance of point of view, historical situation, and audience of a source *Question how what we think of as “history,” how it is written, and what biases are at play in a work
