Teaching Students to Understand History Graphically.
Donlan, Dan
Social Education, v49 n3 p237-39 Mar 1985
History textbooks usually read like dictionaries and encyclopedias--compact, fact-filled, and dry. To help senior high school students get meaning from this kind of text, teachers can use graphic techniques to preview the text, to guide students during reading, and to review the text after the students have read it.
