History. Re-imagined.
You chose to homeschool in part because you wanted an education in important matters they won’t receive elsewhere. Pallas is here to help you fulfill that goal.
Why Pallas’ Curriculum Works
Pallas Center’s mission is to help students learn the truth about the most important parts of US history. Our approach centers on four key components:
-
- Integrity. Our top priority is integrity. Our goal is to provide a fact-based education, regardless of wherever the facts take us. We strive for an impartial tone, and encourage students to make up their own mind based on the facts presented.
-
- An easy to use curriculum. We focused on having a curriculum that contains just the right amount of detail, and is structured in a way that helps students understand the contextual importance of events rather than simply acquire seemingly random historical facts.
-
- Quizzes to help students retain knowledge. Experienced educators know that quizzes help students learn. The quizzes in our course repeat key facts in a different format, helping students retain the knowledge they acquire from course readings. Quiz results also help students measure how effectively they learned a given concept, and where they might need to focus extra.
-
- Links to help students explore their curiosity. Our courses are meant to not only to provide a structured introductory education in a given important topic, but also to provide a springboard to help students foster their curiosity and learn independently. To achieve this goal, our course material includes many links to the top journalists whose work is the foundation upon which course materials were developed.
