Mairi Cowan; Christoph Richter – History Teacher, 2023
Food is perfectly positioned to link students' lives to the deep and broad historical forces around them.

Kimura, Masami – History Teacher, 2022
Efforts have been made among scholars from Japan, South Korea, and China since the 1980s--on both private and state initiatives--to narrow the gaps in their historiographies and to cultivate mutual understanding.

Breathnach, Ciara; Mulrennan, Kirsten; Keogh, Sinéad – History Teacher, 2021
Although anathema to domain experts, it is unfortunately the case that students of history can graduate with an honors degree without ever handling or analyzing archival materials. Archives are unique resources--ranging from official state documents to personal papers--that have the potential to enrich historical research immeasurably. Access to…

Dotolo, Frederick H., III – History Teacher, 2021
In particular, the study of history--its scope, reliance on analytical narrative, and methodology of tracing change and continuity over time--provides for an exchange of meaningful narratives.

Hilton, Laura J. – History Teacher, 2021
The aim of this article is to examine the frameworks that educators use, especially how they conclude teaching and learning about genocide, and to suggest readings and other sources for use.

Sobers, Candace – History Teacher, 2020
Due to the particular experiences of the African continent and its peoples, and the myriad of ways these experiences have been interpreted, appropriated, and reclaimed, there are a pressing series of epistemological, pedagogical, and ethical challenges, especially for those who wish to include African content in predominantly non-Africanist…

Hicks, Alison; Howkins, Adrian – History Teacher, 2015
Recognizing the limitations of traditional research assignments, the two authors of this article--one a librarian and one a historian--set out to redesign a history capstone seminar to focus on the research process as much as on the research product: tipping the iceberg to look at what is underneath. The article begins with a brief overview of the…
