European History AP (Senior, Year Long Course)

Generic 1

All Senior students will take either one year-long senior elective, or two semester-long senior electives.

The AP European History Course is a 2-semester introduction to the major cultural, political, economic and social developments that have shaped Europe from 1450 to the present. If you are interested in the period of history when Europe emerged from the early Renaissance to ride Imperialism and Industrialism to become the ascendant region on the globe, and then plunge itself into destructive world war, ideological battles, and ethnic terror, then this is the class for you. In addition to a college level text, course materials will include art, music and literature. Students will take frequent practice tests and quizzes in preparation for the AP exam.
