ADVANCED PLACEMENT EUROPEAN HISTORY
COURSE PHILOSOPHY
In the Advanced Placement Modern European course, students acquire a knowledge of the basic events and movements that occurred in Europe during the time period from approximately 1450 to the present. These events and movements are explored through three themes: intellectual and cultural history, political and diplomatic history, and social documents and how to express their historical understanding in writing. The Advanced Placement Modern European course offers motivated students and teachers the opportunity to immerse themselves in the events and ideas that have made our culture what it is today. Despite all the focus on diversity, the fact remains that the European tradition continues to be a major influence on the modern world. Without a firm grounding in the strengths and weaknesses of modern Europe, young people cannot function effectively in the worlds of today and tomorrow. Indeed, human rights and material abundance are the win poles of what the rest of the world seems to want, and both are products of modern Europe.
