Southwest Guilford High – World Humanities

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

This course will begin with a focus on the ancient cultures of the Mediterranean and Europe through the Reformation, the Renaissance, and the political revolutions of the 18th and 19th centuries. Humanities studies demonstrate the way that human beings historically create and share meaning as individuals, as communities, and as cultures through what they document and produce. Course content will be studied through a contemporary global lens and as a seminar experience with embedded skills associated with seminar participation, such as reading, researching, listening, speaking, questioning, interpreting, reasoning, and creating.
