Advance Placement® World History is the College Board® college-level survey course that introduces students to world civilizations and cultures. This course develops an understanding of the evolution of global processes and contacts including interaction over time. This non-traditional approach looks at the common threads of humanity—trade, religion, politics, society and technology—and investigates how each have changed and continued over time. The course traces the human experience from the emergence of Neolithic cultures to the 21st Century, C.E., emphasizing historical thinking skills, writing skills and content knowledge characteristic of a college-level world history course. Students will devote considerable time to the critical evaluation of primary and secondary sources, as they write essays, engage in class discussions and participate in Socratic seminars.
