Short Summary
Class Information
Description
"Your Future World" is broadly interdisciplinary, weaving together the physical geography, cultural geography, history, emerging issues, geopolitics, economics, and demographics of a different country each week. Similar in scope to AP Human Geography but without the writing and 19th century models to memorize. (Not an AP Human Geography prep class.) Prior geographic knowledge is not assumed, but the ability to conduct online research, excellent reading skills (high school+ level), and a willingness to engage with challenging content are a must. We conclude each class with a country-specific game to reinforce learning.
Optional end-of-semester honors project for those who want to extend their learning.
Spring semester only
