Introduction to Big History: The History of Everything and Everyone

"Big History" is a relatively new and highly interdisciplinary course first taught in 1989 by Professor David Christian at Macquarie University in Australia.  This course, now taught at both the high school and university levels all over the world, connects written history with what we have learned through research in the many disciplinary lenses in the natural and social sciences.  Big History exposes students to the entire 13.8 billion year development of the universe.  The panel named below will share information about the origin and evolution of the universe and the Earth, the experiences of teaching Big History, and the many resources now available on this topic.
