I don’t think simply choosing the most “politically correct” answer even worked with that specific course. I don’t recall feeling that it leaned in any “right” or “left” directions that I can remember, but it certainly didn’t present the questions in a neutral way with the content given.
The content itself wasn’t bad & pretty straightforward to what I’ve learned in PBS documentaries & books I’ve read, but it was the way the questions were asked, (& the answers expected) that were jarring to me. That said, this was the only course I had any issue with though.
Yes, so much this. The content itself was fine (I found the PDFs to be quite interesting) but the questions were certainly weird in comparison to History I. If History I had been the same, I wouldn't have been as surprised. Thinking about it, I almost get the feeling that the questions for History II were written by a right-leaning person trying to guess what a left-leaning teacher would actually teach. I get that history can be biased but these were biased in such a weird way.
Maybe because I am Canadian,and an old red tory, and that is not exactly the same view on left right as found in the states, and is waning even in Canada to some degree
