APHG Happy Hour – Thinking Geographically

August 13 @ 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Join us for an informal, organic discussion facilitated by APHG educators for APHG educators. Each session will focus on a participant-driven conversation about each unit where you can share your insights, seek advice, and discuss the latest trends that support the implementation of the AP Human Geography curriculum without the constraints of a formal presentation.

This session will focus on unit 1 of the APHG course. Participants will discuss the content of unit 1, teaching strategies, and how unit 1 establishes knowledge and skills used throughout the course.
