History Extension

History Extension 

Rationale (An excerpt from NESA Syllabus)

"The History Extension course is about the nature of history, and how and why historical interpretations are developed from different perspectives and approaches over time. It offers a higher level of challenge than the Ancient History and Modern History courses with its greater emphasis on historiography."
