World History
World History - $58
World History + World Literature & Writing - $98
Explore civilizations, ideas, character, evidence, and consequences.
Students learn to think like historians.
They ask what happened, why it happened, what evidence supports an explanation, what perspectives may be missing, how ideas affected events, and whether a claim fits the evidence. Rather than simply presenting information, the guide continually helps students ask better questions, make connections, examine evidence, and consider what history can teach them about their own lives.

Evidence & Historical Claims
What Students Will Explore
Students explore civilizations from the ancient world to the modern era while learning to think historically. They examine evidence, different perspectives, important turning points, and the ideas and choices that shaped societies. Rather than simply memorizing events, students learn to ask stronger questions, evaluate historical claims, and understand how ideas, choices, and consequences shape the world.
Each course component has a clear purpose, helping students learn independently while keeping parents meaningfully involved.
