On the first day of Black History Month, the College Board introduced the official curriculum for its new Advanced Placement course in African American Studies.
The course was first announced last August but David Coleman, the head of the College Board, said that the board decided on the final framework after feedback from educators and students and principles that have guided and served as the ultimate foundation of AP courses. Along with teachers and students, the board worked with 300 professors of African American Studies from hundreds of colleges nationwide, including dozens of historically Black colleges.
Coleman said the course will allow students to complete student projects that can examine several topics, including the ones that were on the earlier framework, if they choose to.
