HISTORICAL THINKING AND OTHER UNNATURAL ACTS
Charting the Future of Teaching the Past
“The essays in this book begin with the basic assumption that history teaches us a way to make choices, to balance opinions, to tell stories and to become uneasy—when necessary—about the stories we tell.” (p. ix)
“When I informed the professor that I would review the literature on history learning, I met a chilly response. ‘Can’t,’ she said matter-of-factly,-’there’s no literature to review.” (xi)
See page xii for a run down of how the book is organized.
We will start our discussion of the book by reading Chapter 3 and discussing that chapter at our Sept. 7th symposium.
FEEDBACK FROM MODEL LESSONS
Which ones did we use?
EXAMPLES FROM MODEL LESSON EXPERIENCES
Let’s discuss the strengths and suggestions for improvement from these model lessons. Do they require great modifications? Do they need time recommendations? In reflection, what would we change? How can we measure student learning?
Reaching For Your Star
