Synopsis

Written by teachers, for teachers, this guide offers instructional resources for all the AP World History exam components, including: stimulus-based multiple-choice questions, short-answer questions, document analysis, document-based essay questions, and the three long essay question styles of causation, comparison, and continuity and change over time. Teacher introductions to each section include pacing suggestions and proven teaching strategies. Student learning guides introduce the skills to the student step-by-step, providing ample opportunity for guided practice. Additional assessments are also included to increase student confidence and ensure mastery. Updated to reflect the fall 2017 course changes made by College Board, this guide is an invaluable resource for new and experienced teachers alike.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Combined, the authors have over 70 years of teaching experience, and over 30 years of teaching AP World History. They have also amassed over 20 years of invaluable participation as readers and leaders of the AP World History exam. Working together at a socially, culturally, and economically diverse 6A Title I school in the Greater Houston area, they have built a program which has seen a consistently high level of success. Chris Peek has been involved with AP World History since its inception. Along with being a full time social studies teacher he is also a curriculum writer for the Houston Independent School District and a consultant with the College Board. Chris has written exams for major publishing houses as well as questions for the TExES exam for teacher certification. Chris attempts to keep Kate on a steady course as she sometimes veers in tangential directions. Kate Nocca, born in England, has a long history of international education, eventually finding her way to Houston, Texas, where she has worked for many years. Kate has been instrumental in the development of the AP World History curriculum for Houston ISD. She has written exam questions for a major publishing house and has participated in question writing for an on-line review. Kate is never satisfied and often edits her own edits. Lauren Ortega, although fairly new to the team, has proven invaluable with her grasp of history, technical expertise, and editing abilities. Without her help, you would not understand a word written in this skills guide.
