We have an exciting semester ahead of us in which we will explore our world’s modern history including industrialization, imperialism, revolutions, world wars, government, art, philosophy and much more. This class will be a mix of challenging and engaging activities to increase your understanding of how our world has arrived at where it is today. Emphasis will be placed on the political, economic and social outcomes of our units of study. We will begin with a review of some early world history, however the focus will be on the 19th & 20th centuries. I have the utmost confidence that you will all excel in this class and I look forward to getting to know all of you.
