Unit 1 Overview | Big History Project

What is Big History? This is the first of 10 videos orienting you to the 10 units of the Big History Project course. Big History teacher Rachel Hanson helps us see how science is linked to the study of history, and why it’s important to examine our Universe’s 13.8 billion years of existence to see how our understanding of this history has changed over time.
