It's a great introduction to the Middle Ages and very easy to read with lots of great maps, pictures and primary sources.
For those who are interested (I am often asked by teachers), the microphone that I use to record my videos is the Blue Yeti USB microphone.

It's on the pricier side but a great investment. If you are serious about having great sound for your lectures, it is worth every penny.
Chapters:
1:51 Geography of the Middle Ages
3:32 What are the Middle Ages?
5:24 Why study the Middle Ages
9:07 The Divisions of the Middle Ages (Early, High, Late)
11:14 Dating Conventions of History
In this online degree breadth course, Students survey the breadth of medieval history in Europe, North Africa, Anatolia and the Middle East spanning the late Roman period to the sixteenth century. Through integrated reading assignments, podcasts, videos and other media, students explore the major economic, political, social and religious developments that account for the shape of medieval civilization and its influence on subsequent centuries.
In this first video, I will introduce you to the study of the Middle Ages. We'll cover the basic time frame of the period, the geographical extent of the course and touch upon some of the reasons why the period remains relevant today.
