Course Description In this course, we will begin by studying the provinces of China. Then dive into the history of Asia. How did the geography and weather patterns shape the Asia we know today? We will continue on to learn the individual histories of the countries of China, Korea, and Japan. Also focusing on how these countries influenced each other. Asian studies will also deal with the economic and religious issues, which came up throughout history especially when the West arrives in Asia. We will end the course by looking at the current events taking place in these countries. Throughout our course, students will be reading various primary sources and learning how to cite those sources in academic style writing. Students will be asked to read and watch the news because some class discussions will mainly focus on current events. This will be an exciting course.
