Teaching about Asia at the Secondary Level. Report of the Fifteenth Yale Conference on the Teaching of Social Studies.
Bartlett, Beatrice S., Ed.; And Others
This conference booklet seeks to assist high school teachers who teach about Asia. Emphasis is upon providing a bibliography, with course outlines and background materials also offered. Four hundred annotated citations focusing on book, periodical, and other resource materials, published within the last decade, are provided for teachers working with advanced and able students who desire to investigate topics in depth. The bibliography is arranged into six main sections: China, India, Japan, Southeast Asia, general, and publishers addresses. In an effort to promote cultural understandings, three course outlines on China and two on India offer examples of differing teaching approaches for secondary grade levels. Four papers provide background readings on several ways of generalizing about Chinese culture and society, land settlement, Chinese ethnocentrism, and the politics of imperial China; the classical music of India; the search for relevance in Japanese history; and nationalism and communism in Southeast Asia.
