HSCHI 082 HS Completion: Contemporary History

We live in a big world that, due to technology, is getting smaller by the day. Consequently, events that occur on the other side of the globe often directly affect individuals living in the Puget Sound. This class will consider why and how that happens and what global events are impacting us today. Current Global Studies surveys some of the history, geography, culture, and current issues of the major regions of the world. Students will also learn to use anthropological observation methods to study cultures and worldviews. Students will participate in classroom or online discussions, the construction of maps and the creation of essays.
