        CRASH COURSE HISTORY 
         
        Crash Course History is a collection of short (approx. 10 minute) videos that are available through You Tube to help individuals learn about important topics in World and U.S. History.  The links below connect you directly to various Crash Course U.S. History videos covering topics that are part of the NYS Grade 8 Social Studies Curriculum.  These videos can be used as learning tools during a topic of study, as review before chapter/unit tests, or as review for your final exam.  The videos are well developed but do go at a brisk pace that may be difficult for some students to follow.  The beauty is that you are in control of the video.  You can pause the video at any point, go back to concepts you missed, and watch it as many times as you need.
