Helpful Site to Study for the Final

Hello Students,

Welcome to my blog for our Advanced Placement European History class for 2010-2011!

The purpose of this blog is to communicate with parents and students as to what's going on in class, and also provide helpful tips, tricks, resources and other interesting European history-related things.

Since our final is upcoming, I wanted to provide all students with some helpful resources to study for the final. To that end, one site that I have found extremely valuable over my years as a professional educator is Ms. Susan Pojer's AP European History web site.

It contains numerous resources, including a gigantic review packet, practice quizzes, and a topic by topic review page. It's a nearly unlimited resource for students. I expect that you will use it now in December and also in April and May to study for the national AP Exam.

Also made by Ms. Pojer is the PowerPoint Palooza web site. This web site contains literally dozens of AP European History PowerPoints for you to download and review. You may recognize some parts of some PowerPoints as many of them provided the original foundation for some of the SMART board presentations we do in class. Of course, I have provided credit where credit is due, even if the presentation is 90% mine now!

I hope you use these valuable resources. There is a reason why I am giving them to you now instead of in April. I think they will be useful for the rest of the school year. Enjoy!

Mr. Hudson
