History Lab
History Lab
Description:
Imagine a science lab designed for learning history instead of chemistry: Where students are examining 200-year old documents rather than mixing chemical compounds, where they are inquiring into the meaning of these sources, drawing inferences and formulating hypotheses. The History Lab is an online lesson template that reflects certain beliefs about teaching history: that student learning should focus as much on inquiry, reflection, interpretation and constructing hypotheses as on acquisition of predigested knowledge. It provides a framework to help teachers teach history through primary sources.
