Assignment Types Overview

NP courses use a variety of assignment types to build historical literacy, support writing development, and reinforce comprehension and retention. Each assignment is intentionally designed to help students think like historians.

• American History handbook
• World History handbook
• Media Literacy handbook
• Pirates handbook
• History of Alaska handbook
• History of Free Speech handbook
