For History methods courses for Middle and Secondary students.
This text offers a wealth of ideas for prospective teachers of history, concerning the selection of content, methods of instruction, and ways to assess pupils' learning. Coverage advocates the use of a systematic approach to improving learners' "historical thinking." It offers guidelines for involving learners in historical inquiry, teaching toward chronological thinking, encouraging deliberative discussions, and using primary sources/historical documents to ignite pupils' innate "detective" instincts and engage them in solving historical problems.
