This is a dual credit course. Students will get credit at the high school level and also at the college level.
Because we live in a border community, we discuss how national laws, conflicts, and trends shaped the El Paso region. By making connections between the national narrative and El Paso’s reaction and role, this course makes history engaging, useful, and relevant to students' lives and the community. This goal is achieved through lectures, class discussions, and reading assignments.
You will use an Edmodo account, a Google Drive account, and access El Paso Community College's Blackboard. Follow your syllabus and calendar to check on your reading assignments.
