History Education and Historical Inquiry
Inquiry plays a vital role in history as a discipline which constructs knowledge about the past and it is a vital organizing principle in history education in many countries around the world. Inquiry is also much debated, however, and although it has prominent contemporary advocates around the world, it also has prominent critics in education studies. This volume in the International Review of History Education explores the role of historical inquiry in history curricula and in history classrooms and addresses a series of linked questions, including the following: • What does historical inquiry mean in history classrooms? • What forms does classroom based historical inquiry take, and to ...
Hard Questions
Teaching controversial issues in the classroom is now more urgent and fraught than ever as we face up to rising authoritarianism, racial and economic injustice, and looming environmental disaster. Despite evidence that teaching controversy is critical, educators often avoid it. How then can we prepare and support teachers to undertake this essential but difficult work? Hard Questions: Learning to Teach Controversial Issues, based on a cross-national qualitative study, examines teacher educators’ efforts to prepare preservice teachers for teaching controversial issues that matter for democracy, justice, and human rights. It presents four detailed cases of teacher preparation in three politi...

This book provides a comprehensive and radical guide to the challenges facing history and history teaching in contemporary schools
Overcoming Conflict
Peacebuilding and reconciliation between groups and entire nations that share a violent past are among the toughest, yet most important, challenges for modern societies. Opposing perspectives, disagreements about the interpretation of historical events or even entirely different narratives too often impede processes of rapprochement. How can teaching history contribute to overcoming the demarcation lines of such narratives and resolving historical conflicts that are passed on from generation to generation or renewed, amplified and exploited for present political purposes? This volume comprises twelve case studies—from Central and Eastern Europe to South Africa, from the Middle East to East Asia—exploring stories about successes and failures in the never-ending struggle for peaceful coexistence. All of them ultimately reflect the fundamental question of our discipline: Can we learn from history?
Teaching History 11 - 18
Teaching History 11-18 is a comprehensive introduction to teaching. learning and assessing history in secondary schools. Drawing on cutting edge research and practice, it 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. At the core of the book is a focus on diversity and its implications: the diversity of classrooms in English schools, cultural diversity and pluralism in accounts of the past, and the diversity of pedagogic and communicative strategies at the disposal of teachers. The book is realistic about the challenges: a precarious place in the curriculum, pupil disaffection, bitter ideological debates about the purpose, place and status of history, but offers a forward-looking rationale for the centrality of the past in debates about identity, social cohesion and persona and social education.

Geschichtsvermittlung postkolonial
Postkoloniale Theorie polarisiert: Den einen gilt sie als »Supertheorie« für das Zeitalter der Globalisierung, anderen dagegen als elitärer Diskurs, der zu konfliktfördernder Identitätspolitik führt. Doch welche Rolle kann sie für die geschichtsdidaktische Theorie und den Geschichtsunterricht spielen? Philipp Bernhard prüft diese Frage anhand einer systematischen geschichtsdidaktischen Analyse »postkolonialer« Lehr-Lernmaterialien. Er leitet daraus vier Grundüberlegungen (»Claims«) für eine Umsetzung postkolonialer Theorieansätze in der Geschichtsvermittlung ab. Dabei zeigt sich: Die Geschichtsdidaktik muss die Postkoloniale Theorie kritisch reflektieren, kann aber auf deren Impulse für die Weiterentwicklung von Theorie und (Unterrichts-)Praxis nicht verzichten.
