Evaluation
This resource has excellent material. It provides scaffolding, skills building, and regular opportunities for assessment. The layout for each topic is clear and consistent. However, it is missing some elements that connect to the Utah State World History Core and would require some supplemental materials to teach because it leans a bit Eurocentric. This resource provides quantity and quality of materials, resources, and assessments.
