AP Study Source

This is a fabulous free resource to help students gain greater understanding of the new paradigm for the APUSH exam. Has rich multi-media resources-- many *short* video presentations, both from a high school APUSH teacher and from noted historians. Goes over the specific key 'big ideas' for each APUSH time period, discusses a specific aspect of the exam and what's involved. My students are *loving* this great resource-- very engaging, very professionally done. MUCH better in my mind that the several new APUSH print study guides I've been reviewing. Hope your students find this helpful too-- right now they are putting up a new 'APUSH Time Period' every month, and usually just a bit *before* their promised date. Terrific *REVIEW* tool for students to use independently -- or for teachers to assignment particular resources to view (lots of PSD's, links to the excellent 'History by Era' essays (which I was already using with my online students), and much more.
