Basics
Don’t feel bad.  I’d need help, too, if I was operating on your appendix or overhauling your engine or programming the computer you’re currently using.  Maybe you’re rusty on history and need a brief basics-for-beginners refresher before diving into the chapters.  This ESL text and these videos might help, with corresponding History Hub chapters to the right.  Keep in mind that the content varies from our text and these have nothing directly to do with our exams or learning objectives.  Videos like these should be used on a purely supplemental basis, in this or any other class.  They do not suffice as a real history course, which requires sustained effort.  This ESL text and these videos are a starting point only, to create a vertical text set to orient you before starting to read the chapters. There are also map-related videos in the Atlas link at the top of the page.
