Welcome to Mr. Tredinnick's US History Course

Picture
Welcome to this survey course on the history of the United States from its first settlement by American Indians up to the Modern Era. This course will introduce students to the basic principles of the American Democracy, and the significant historical events that have shaped the United States to become the country it is today. Specific emphasis will be laid on the social, economic, political, and environmental factors that influenced the path to development for the United States, and how those factors have impacted separate groups within the United States differently. Through studying the historical developments of the United States the overarching goal is to help students gain an appreciation of the different factors that went in to the formation of the modern United States as a country, and as a people.
