Several different applications, assignments, and projects offered in a variety of learning styles allow the teacher to gauge a student?s ability to retain and apply knowledge.This electivewritten in accordance to Option B: History of the Catholic Church from the USCCB Curriculum Frameworkis one that can supplement catechesis on the Church that students were introduced to in an earlier course on Ecclesiology.
