Accelerated+Social+Studies+10



Blending socio-cultural knowledge with the historical development of the Middle East, India, China, Japan and Southeast Asia, and Europe, the purpose of this course is to trace the progression of civilization from isolated, self-sufficient communities to the modern global, interdependent nations that exist today. With an emphasis on a comparative cultural approach, Accelerated Social Studies envisions an informed, discriminating student who acts with appreciation, judgment, and respect for the shared humanity of all.
