This class will move through world history more or less sequentially, from the beginning of recorded human history through the middle ages, exploring the development of civilization across a twelve-thousand year span. We will be using The Human Odyssey, Vol. 1: Prehistory Through the Middle Ages as our primary textbook, though many supplementary resources will be used throughout the course, as well as class discussion, activities, plus a few projects, presentations and/or reports.
