The Palgrave Handbook of History and Social Studies Education
This Handbook presents an international collection of essays examining history education past and present. Framing recent curriculum reforms in Canada and in the United States in light of a century-long debate between the relationship between theory and practice, this collection contextualizes the debate by exploring the evolution of history and social studies education within their state or national contexts. With contributions ranging from Canada, Finland, New Zealand, Sweden, the Netherlands, the Republic of South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States, chapters illuminate the ways in which curriculum theorists and academic researchers are working with curriculum developers and educators to translate and refine notions of historical thinking or inquiry as well as pedagogical practice.
"Jesus Was a Jew"
Is the historical rivalry between Jews and Christians forgotten in modern Israel? Do Jewish-Israeli young people partake in the historic memory of the polemics between the two religions? This book scrutinizes the presentations of Christians and Christianity in Israeli school curricula, textbooks, and teaching in the state education system, in an attempt to elucidate the role of relations to Christianity in the construction of modern Jewish-Israeli identity, and it reveals that despite the changes in Jewish-Christian relations, they are still a significant factor in the construction of modern Jewish-Israeli identity.
Historisches Bildverstehen oder Wie lernen Schüler mit Bildquellen?
Die Arbeit mit Bildquellen hat einen festen Platz im Geschichtsunterricht. Jenseits bisheriger theoretischer und unterrichtspraktischer Überlegungen zur Arbeit mit historischen Bildquellen wurde jedoch bislang kaum diskutiert, was "Bildverstehen" überhaupt heißt, und wie man Bildverstehensprozesse vom Lernsubjekt her beschreiben und erklären kann. Wie viel Vorwissen ist hilfreich und notwendig, um Bilder historisch zu verstehen und zu interpretieren? Welchen Einfluss haben Schülervorstellungen auf den Bildverstehensprozess? Die vorliegende Studie geht diesen Fragen erstmals empirisch nach.

Normative Power Europe Meets Israel
The book draws on some of the scholarship in perception studies and “Normative Power Europe” theory. The study of perceptions, although dating back to the mid-1970s, is gaining renewed currency in recent years both in international relations, in general, and in European Union studies, in particular. And yet, despite the significance of external perceptions of the European Union, there is still a lack of theoretical forays into this area as well as an absence of empirical investigations of actual external role conceptions. These lacunae in scholarly work are significant, since how the European Union is perceived outside its borders, and what factors shape these perceptions, are crucial fo...
International Review of History Education
The third volume in this international review takes "raising standards" as its central theme. Raising standards is no simple matter, either conceptually or empirically, whatever politicians might think. If it is to happen, it must draw on research and practical experience from other countries.
Surfing the Past
This books discusses one of the most frequently discussed subjects in history education during the last two decades, namely how secondary school pupils use the World Wide Web for their learning activities. Based on two case studies in two Dutch schools, the book shows some ways in which the use of the Web has changed history education in at least three respects: first, the findings of the two case studies show that the Web has a huge potential to turn the history class - previously described as boring and too abstract - into a livelier and more attractive environment, where concepts, events, phenomena and processes of the past almost always have textual and/or [audio]visual representations; ...
