Classroom Activities for Developing A Cohesive Understanding of History.
Mills, Randy K.
Social Education, v55 n1 p34-37,65 Jan 1991
Suggests that the story of humanity can be presented as human groups solving the basic problems of human existence throughout time. Contends that delineating this basic theme of history can present students with a coherent view of history. Links the individual's story to the broader view and presents a teaching unit that conceptualizes this approach. (SLM)
