Download 8TH US HISTORY SCOPE AND SEQUENCE 2007

CFISD AP World History
Scope & Sequence 2016-17
Course Description: The purpose of the Advanced Placement World History course is to develop greater understanding of
world processes and contacts, in interaction with different types of human societies. Building on a short summary of cultural
and institutional world history prior to 1000 C.E. (AD), the course focuses primarily on the last 1000 years of global
experience. Using a chronological approach, the curriculum uses six major themes as unifying threads, helping students to
put what is particular about each time period or society into a larger framework. Knowledge of major developments that
illustrate or link the six thematic areas and of major civilizations in Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, Europe, and the Americas is
expected. This course of study is the equivalent of an introductory college course and is available to students interested in
taking the Advanced Placement examination in World History Studies.

***The length of each unit is a specific number of days, but it is understood that there is a range of +/- a day. The purpose of the
flexibility is meant to allow teachers the opportunity to plan for the needs of their students and to accommodate re-teaching or review when
necessary. If pre-assessment indicates student mastery could be obtained in a fewer number of days, the additional time could be used for
extension or carried into the next unit.
