History focuses on the key people and events through which we see God’s Hand and purpose. Students read and take notes with an emphasis on understanding the ideas and movements behind the events. We begin with the Renaissance and move through the Reformation and into the Enlightenment. A study of the Modern Age with the World Wars and the period up to the present concludes the class. Students are taught how to prepare classroom presentations and a speech. Instruction about research and organizing a research paper is given, and each student researches and writes a research paper on a topic of their interest.
