Now in its 4th edition, this popular text for secondary social
studies methods courses integrates discussions of educational goals
and the nature of history and social studies with ideas for
organizing social studies curricula, units, lessons, projects, and
activities. A major theme throughout is that what teachers choose
to teach and the way they teach reflect their broader understanding
of society, history, and the purpose of social studies education.
Advocating an inquiry and activity-based view of social studies
teaching that respects the points of view of students and teachers,
and based in practice and experience, it offers systematic support
and open, honest advice for new teachers. Each chapter addresses a
broad question about social studies education; sub-chapters begin
with narrower questions that direct attention to specific
educational issues. Lesson ideas and materials in the book and
online are especially designed to help new teachers to address
common core learning standards, to work in inclusive settings, and
to promote literacy and the use of technology in social studies
classrooms. Chapters include highlighted Learning Activities,
Teaching Activities, nd Classroom Activities designed to provoke
discussion and illustrate different approaches to teaching social
studies, and conclude with recommendations for further reading and
links to on-line essays about related social studies topics.
Activities are followed by four categories: "Think it over," "Add
your voice to the discussion," "Try it yourself," and "It's your
classroom." All of these are supported with online teaching
material. Designed for undergraduate and graduate pre-service
social studies methods courses, this text is also useful for
in-service training programs, as a reference for new social studies
teachers, and as a resource for experienced social studies
educators who are engaged in rethinking their teaching practice.
New in the Fourth Edition Provides a number of new lesson ideas
paired with online lesson plans and activity sheets in every
chapter Takes a new focus on data-driven, standards-based
instruction, especially in relation to the common core curriculum
Addresses the interactive nature of learning in updated technology
sections Reflects current trends in history education Includes more
of what the author has learned from working teachers Offers a
wealth of additional on-line material linked to the text
