This course spans 250,000 years of history, from early migrations to the present day. Its analytical frame is built around communities, networks, and production and distribution, which gives the sweep of events a consistent logic rather than a list of dates.
Graphic biographies and interactive activities are used to bring the past to life, which suits learners who find narrative easier to follow than a timeline.
Students and lifelong learners who want a wide-angle view of world history will find the unit sequence a natural guide, from the Agricultural Revolution to globalization.
This course unites OER Project’s rigorous curriculum with Khan Academy’s videos and articles. Spanning 250,000 years of human history, from humanity’s earliest migrations to the present day, the course includes nine units on the Agricultural Revolution, ancient empires, the spread of belief systems, the Columbian Exchange, the long nineteenth century, global conflicts, and the forces of globalization shaping the modern world. Built around three analytical frames—communities, networks, and production and distribution—the course develops historical thinking skills like sourcing, contextualization, and causation through engaging activities and graphic biographies that bring the past to life.
