Current educational reforms have given rise to various types of
"educational Taylorism," which encourage the creation of efficiency
models in pursuit of a unified way to teach. In history education
curricula, this has been introduced through scripted textbook-based
programs such as Teacher Curriculum Institute's History Alive! and
completely online curricula. They include the jargon of authentic
methods, such as primary sources, cooperative learning,
differentiated instruction, and access to technology; yet the craft
of teaching is removed, and an experience that should be marked by
discovery and reflection is replaced with comparatively empty
processes. This volume provides systematic models and examples of
ways that history teachers can compete with and effectively halt
this transformation. The alternatives the authors present are based
on collaborative models that address the art of teaching for
pre-service and practicing secondary history teachers as well as
collegiate history educators. Relying on original research, and a
maturing body of secondary literature on historical thinking, this
book illuminates how collaboration can create real historical
learning.
