Course Content: Modern History 112 highlights significant ideas, events, and movements in Western modern history from the Atlantic Revolutions through the Industrial Revolution to the world wars to the present day. Learners will examine these significant ideas, events, and movements based on three criteria: historical knowledge, historical thinking, and making connections. Learners will explore concepts of citizenship throughout the course as modern rights and responsibilities emerge in Western modern history, e.g., the concept of dissent and its importance within a democracy. For learners to be engaged and make a difference in their communities and in the world, they will need history instruction consistent with best practices and current research for teaching and learning such as historical thinking. Historical thinking requires learners to critically examine the past—to think deeply about history. Thinking historically emphasizes both historical processes (e.g., critical analysis of evidence) and historical knowledge. The course emphasis is on big ideas rather than a survey of historical facts. Larger themes in the course include the struggle for rights that has and continues to define Western history; the story of colonization and decolonization as the modern geopolitical order developed; and the often shocking effects of war and violence on society.

Students should expect Modern History 112 to challenge them to explore how dominant ideologies shape historical narratives and influence whose histories are valued and recorded. Learners will explore how the stories of different groups of people and identities have been valued differently and how historical narratives can change dramatically when they are considered by diverse and inclusive perspectives. Lastly, students will explore interpreting and analyzing various forms of media from the timeframe covered by Modern History 112—from the earliest political cartoons in history to the results of internet searches and social media accounts today.

The content in this course is important and challenging learning. It is important to acknowledge that experiences of war, genocide, discrimination and trauma are not limited to the past for all learners. Learners with diverse beliefs and levels of awareness must be prepared to respecting human rights principles and explore difficult topics like genocide responsibly. Learners must treat genocide with the utmost respect to survivors. Learners and educators must consider the potential of this content to traumatize or re-traumatize.
