High School X’s World History II students took the new World History II SOL test in the fall of 2010. The percent passing this exam was 55.56%.
Areas of specific needs include instruction in the following areas:

 · Emergence of a Global Age (30.1%)  · Age of Revolutions (31.1%)  · Era of Global Wars (28.3%)  · The Post War Period (28.2%)  · Geography (32.9%)      · Civics and Economics (31.0%)

The principal of High School X has noticed that his history faculty predominately utilizes lecture and note-taking. This plan will provide those teachers with an arsenal of strategies from which they can choose to differentiate and enhance their instruction.
