HIST 17AH
History of the United States to Early National Era - HONORS
Course Description
This course examines U.S. civilization to the Early National Era. Students will survey the social, cultural, political, economic, and intellectual development of the Colonial Era with an emphasis on the era of the American Revolution, the development of the Constitution, and the role of the major ethnic, social, and gender groups in the American experience. Because this is an honors program course, students will be expected to complete extra assignments, or an additional longer assignment, to gain deeper insight into American history from the colonial period to the early national era.
Student Learning Outcomes
- Demonstrate and apply knowledge of the pre-Columbian and colonial eras through 1800 in US history to construct defensible statements of meaning and evaluation about this period's developments.
- Identify, critically evaluate, and interpret US history from the pre-Columbian and colonial eras through 1800 using primary source documents to construct historical analysis.
