From my skim, this seems to be focused on the US, not the world, with special attention to learning about the many unique cultures a student will encounter growing up. I ended up atheist, but being exposed to all the world's religions--most with some presence even in rural Georgia--in an interactive way (temples, churches, etc) helped moderate my views. Exposure absent understanding breeds extremism.
