COURSE TITLE: World History
GRADE LEVEL: 10
CREDITS: 10
COURSE OBJECTIVES: Student’s intellectual horizon will be broadened by exposure to a past that
goes all the way back to “in the beginning God created the heaven and earth.” World history
transports the student through time, revealing a variety of cultures and civilizations and the
development and expansion of ideas. In addition, the study of world history reveals many of the
consequences of decisions made by men, leading to triumph or tragedy. During this academic
journey the student also gains insights on related subjects, including religion, art, science,
geography, and other aspects of culture. Seen through the lens of Scripture, world history reveals
the hand of God in the affairs of nations and the success or failure of civilizations in proportion to
their submission to or defiance against His will.
