This course will attempt to develop the student's ability to deal with the history of humans in various parts of the world. Students will study humans with differing cultural-historical backgrounds distributed over a diversified physical earth. This course will deal with race, physical environment, and cultural forces. The course is based on the conviction that an understanding of relatively few underlying principles and processes will enable the student to find meaning in the vast historical past of our earth. The teaching methods are traditional in scope, using a workbook, maps, lectures, and class discussion.
Evaluation is based on weekly tests, workbook, and class discussion.
