You will learn the same curriculum as our on-campus students
We will examine American history through the lens of rock and roll. Students will study the development and transformation of rock and roll from early blues to the present day. We will analyze how rock and roll became a tool for civic engagement and social movements in the United States. We will explore themes in rock and roll, and trace ideas in the music to expressions of American diversity. As a class we will explore rock and roll's influence, politically, socially and economically. Through listening, reading, viewing and writing, students will draw and verify conclusions. Students will be required to analyze primary and secondary documents, music and videos from the different time periods and connect the historical themes to the present day.
