AP World History
The course description and resources are below. We will be using two textbooks for the class. All quizzes and tests will be based on The Ways of the World textbook. The supplemental book for in class work will be the World Civilizations textbook. The practice quizzes and study guides on this Moodle page are all aligned with the old textbook. They are great for quick checks of understanding.
