Global History Regents Review: 9th and 10th grade

These are notes, student-made podcasts, text links, sample questions, etc. for the two-year Global Studies Course. Keep in mind that many of these notes just touch the surface of some very complex historical concepts and era's. This material serves as a review for students before they take the Global Studies Regents Exam. Some of the curriculum (about 10%) has been omitted or neglected simply because; there is far too much information to teach, review, learn and know. If you know this material - you should be able to pass the Global Regents Exam. Other helpful Review Sites:  old regents exams  -  regentsprep.org.
