Drawing on cutting edge research and practice, this book draws together recent thinking in teaching and learning in history, teaching and learning in secondary education more generally and classroom-based research to provide a radical re-thinking of the practices of teaching and learning about the past at the beginning of the twenty-first century.
this put my own history education into perspective as an a level student who is starting a history degree this autumn. helpful introduction to the fundamentals of teaching history which is what i want to do later in life. favourite sections included the chapter on historical purpose created by a sense of enquiry as well as the chapter about how history should be made to be engaging to all students.
