About Insight

Curriculum
The Insight curriculum integrates many subjects and follows a chronological progression of history from Creation to current events. Philosophies, religions, literature, culture, and ideas that shape humanity are all explored in this framework. Insight covers the following core knowledge areas throughout the program: humanities, worldviews, the Bible, and communications.

Modules
Insight is broken down into four modules, two in the Fall semester and two in the Spring. The first two modules cover the ancient and classical world, including its ideas, developments, and people. Modules 3 and 4 cover the expanding and modern world, beginning with the collapse of the Roman Empire and ending with current global issues.

Field Trips
