Mom-to-three-sons Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Does anyone know of a good government course? Just to fulfill the high school requirement, I had the eldest two work through Abeka's government text. Neither liked it at all. Do you have any suggestions for something better? Coming from a Biblical-world-view perspective, I was considering the God and Government series. I've heard of, and that is about it. I know nothing about it. Any input on it or do you have a better recommendation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming from a Biblical-world-view perspective, I was considering the God and Government series. I've heard of, and that is about it. I know nothing about it. Any input on it or do you have a better recommendation? I used God and Government by Gary Demar when I was in High School and loved it. It really shaped my thinking on the subject--even to this day. We also read Animal Farm in that Government course as well. I highly recommend the Demar series. It's one of the few courses from my high school experience that I remember fondly. You can learn more about it from the American Vision website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphabetika Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I second the vote for Notgrass, though we also have the first book of the God and Government series and it, too, looks excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne/Ankara Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 A great visual supplement is Hippocampus, American Government. Their mini lessons are very well done and informative. http://www.hippocampus.org/?select-browse-topics-sequential Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenschooler Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Great Source American Government has been recommended many times on this board. I haven't used it yet, myself, but if you ask about this particular text, I'm sure plenty who have will give you a review of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
