The teacher companion to World History A — Ideas, Revolutions, Industry and Empire (California), the first semester of grade 10 Modern World History, built on California History-Social Science standards 10.1-10.5, the grades 9-12 Historical and Social Sciences Analysis Skills, and the grades 9-10 CCSS literacy standards for history/social studies. It is designed for UC A-G area A.
Module 1 covers the semester as a whole: how it meets the standards and A-G, teaching world history beyond Europe with colonized peoples’ perspectives, teaching colonial violence and genocide with care, and source reading, the copyright rule, pacing and access. Modules 2-5 take one student unit each: a briefing on what students produce and the misreadings that arrive every year, a facilitation module for the seminar and the writing workshop, and a scoring module with synthetic student work at three bands and the feedback that moves each.
