1.0 (yearlong course)
None
This course covers the history of the United States from the beginnings of exploration of North America to the present day through the lens of a Biblical worldview. Emphasis is placed on the United States’ Christian foundation. Students will develop an understanding of key themes in history, and an ability to analyze historical evidence and express historical understanding in writing. This course will use a variety of sources and emphasize reading comprehension, writing, research, and analytical skills.
The first semester of this course (HIST310 A) closely mirrors Social Studies 8 A (SS8 A) in content. If SS8 was taken previously, students are encouraged to take HIST102 (US History from 1877) as the next step in course sequence.
