> Advanced Placement U.S. History is a full-year college course in United States on the period from the first European explorations of the Americas to the present. It provides students with a learning experience equivalent to that obtained in most two-semester college introductory U.S. History Courses. It is designed to help students acquire the analytical skills and factual knowledge needed to deal critically with a wide range of historical problems. Students will also learn to assess historical materials---their relevance to a given issue, their reliability and their importance---and to weight the evidence and interpretations presented in historical scholarship. The course will help the student to develop the skills necessary to arrive at conclusions on the basis of informed judgment and to present reasons and evidence clearly and persuasively in essay form. At the conclusion of the course, students will have the opportunity to take the AP Exam in U.S. History for possible college credit.media type="file" key="01 We Didn't Start the Fire.m4a" width="300" height="50"
