Course Description The DP history course is a world history course based on a comparative and multi-perspective approach to history. It involves the study of a variety of types of history, including political, economic, social and cultural, and provides a balance of structure and flexibility. The course emphasizes the importance of encouraging students to think historically and to develop historical skills as well as gaining factual knowledge. It puts a premium on developing the skills of critical thinking, and on developing an understanding of multiple interpretations of history. In this way, the course involves a challenging and demanding critical exploration of the past. Teachers explicitly teach thinking and research skills such as comprehension, text analysis, transfer, and use of primary sources. The High Level (HL) focus is Africa and the Middle East.

DP students will utilize thinking skills, communication skills, social skills, self-management skills, and research skills. Throughout this unit students will focus on research skills, social skills, and self-management skills. Students will be required to formulate/construct a focused research questions (both in class and as a take home assignment). They will utilize correct citation and referencing and be assigned a task that requires the use of the library.

Undergirding the development of these research skills is the development of social skills. To this end, students will work in small groups, allocating among themselves different roles in classroom discussions and activities. Both in groups and individually, students will set deadlines, revise and improve on work previously submitted, and set their own learning goals. Students will break down a larger task into specific steps and develop, practice and discuss strategies to increase understanding.
