3HIS - Level 3 History
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mrs N. Crawford.
This course includes an in-depth study of political, social and economic change during the Age of Imperialism in the 19th Century. Topics explored are centered around British imperialism; including the Opium Wars in China, the Invasion of the Waikato and researching a piece of colonial legislation.
In Level 3, History students will be challenged to engage with different perspectives to form their own judgements as young historians. They will then develop their own thesis and arguments on debated historical events. The analytical writing skills and inquiry processes taught and developed in this course are valuable for students preparing to engage in further higher education. Level 3 History is a UE approved subject.
