  • History Curriculum
    History Curriculum Humanities (Grade Nine) Humanities History 9 is a full-year required course comprising the history portion of the ninth grade humanities curriculum. Curriculum Goals: • Developing the skills of critical thinking, close reading, and analytical writing, and mastering the importance of additional skills like note-taking and organization. • Exploring a global variety of past cultures and events and examining the connections among those cultures and the present. • Making connections between our own experiences and those of people from the past. Themes and Content: Our focus is directed at a number of historical attempts to create an “ideal” society which balances the needs of the individual with the needs of the community. We will investigate Confucianism in China, Democracy in Athens, Republicanism in Rome, and the Christian theocracy of the late Roman Empire. In each case, we will examine not only the ideas and origins of these social experiments, but also how well they met the challenges of their times. In our study, we will explore essential questions such as: • What is the purpose of government? • What do people expect from their governments? • How do different governments balance the needs of society against individual ambition and the desire for self-fulfillment? • What role do ethical systems (like religions) play in government? • How do societies based on an ideal form adapt to practical problems and challenges? Textbook: A variety of primary and secondary sources is distributed in class or accessed online. No textbook. World History (Grade Ten) This year-long course is designed to explore the people, events and trends that have shaped modern world history, from approximately 1300 AD to the present.

The registration process will begin at a special Town Meeting, which will be devoted to the introduction of the online Course Catalogue (including a preview of new courses) and an overview of the course registration process. Following the Town Meeting, cluster advisers will share a Course Registration Packet with each of their advisees. The packet will include the student’s current academic transcript, a Transcript Audit Review Form, and a Course Selection Form. Although it is ultimately the student’s responsibility to complete his/her Course Selection Form, this process works best when students consult with teachers, cluster advisors, and parents/guardians to make informed decisions. It is advised that each student utilize the Transcript Review Audit Form to ensure that adequate progress is being made toward all Calhoun graduation requirements.

  • Connecting Through Projects
    Student Roundtable Digital Portfolios Home Connecting through projects Projects are everywhere at High Tech High, and a look around the school on any given day will find students of every subject actively making things, trying things out, making them better. Teachers are learning, too, as they work in collegial teams to develop and share curriculum and to assess how students have gained. — from High Tech High’s Annual Curriculum Yearbook (2002) High Tech High is a project-based school. It means that my school does big, exciting, yet complicating assignments that require a lot of research, software and Internet usage, and ideas. This school isn’t just little textbook assignments and worksheets... — Quan Ton, HTH student t High Tech High, interdisciplinary study, links to the real world, and teamwork Ainvigorate teaching and learning at every step. And it is through projects that these three strands most often connect. Below we examine projects at HTH from the viewpoint of both faculty and students. The faculty commentaries, drawn from the school’s annual curriculum yearbook (which can be ordered through High Tech High Learning), reveal the multiple ways HTH teachers reach across disciplines and make learning relevant. The student project descriptions are but a small sample of the hundreds of summaries posted in the digital portfolios kept by each student. The examples we share here reflect the extraordinary range of projects that students pursue.

A Study of the Impact of Data-informed Instruction on the Reading Comprehension of Tenth-Grade Students Abstract Abstract Current literature on data-driven decision-making is centered on the use of summative data from state and district tests for informing decisions regarding teaching and learning. Although annual data have provided schools valid evidence for making decisions for school improvement plans and curriculum changes, they have proven to be less effective in making a direct impact on .the daily instructional decisions that teachers make for improving student achievement (Stiggins, 2000; Reeves, 2006).
