Collapse by Jared Diamond Assignments Chapters 1 10 in World Civilizations Global Experience It is essential that you complete these assignments to the best of your ability. These chapters will be covered less in class to make room for the other 26 chapters we must get through. If you do not take this work seriously you will not be prepared for the start of the year and will fall behind in a class that moves at a VERY fast pace. YOU MUST TYPE all answers to response questions. completed assignments to: karmstrong@rvilleschools.org Due Dates Chapters 1 5 will be due August 1 Chapters 6 10 will be due first day of class You must your assignments before 8:00 p.m. EST. on those dates. You will get a response that your work was received. If you do not get an , that means we did not receive it. THERE WILL BE A TEST on the first day of class. I will create questions from any content found within Chapters 1 10 of the text. This will be a challenging assessment and only students who have seriously prepared will succeed. If you are looking to get through your summer work as quickly/easily as possible, you have the wrong attitude, and should probably remove yourself from this course. AP World History is a demanding class that will require the time commitment of an honors level college student. Each chapter should be read at least 2 3 times to fully prepare for the rigor of exams in this course. Note - This is an AP course; you must abide by the school s academic integrity policy at all times= You MAY NOT work with anyone on this assignment, nor may you copy words/ideas from other sources without proper documentation.
