The Nomadic Professor: Pirates
Pirates: A Swashbuckling History of the Americas in the Age of Sail is a one-semester digital history course that examines piracy across the Americas from the 1400s to the present.
Students work through six units that trace the development of piracy in a historical context, including trade routes, colonial expansion, and shifting political power. The course uses on-location video, guided notes, and document-based research to help students engage with the material from multiple angles.
The subject draws immediate interest, but the course stays grounded in historical context, asking students to look past the mythology and work with the actual record.
The structure supports independent work. Most students move through the course at a pace of two to four sessions per week, using the built-in grading tools to track progress. The final unit connects historical piracy to modern portrayals, giving students a chance to compare popular narratives with historical accounts.
This course typically counts as ½ credit in history or social studies.
Note: Some historical artwork included in the course contains partial nudity.
