originally streamed in 2019 with Patrick LasseterTeachercurriculum note
This video uses a 2006 AP World History DBQ, which included an 'additional document' requirement that no longer exists on the current exam (the instructor acknowledges this). It also references 'Period 4' (old AP World terminology); in the current course, this content falls under Unit 4: Transoceanic Interconnections (1450ā1750). Some DBQ rubric details discussed may not fully reflect the current 2025 scoring guidelines.
