In the case studies that make up the bulk of this book, middle and
high school history teachers describe the decisions and plans and
the problems and possibilities they encountered as they ratcheted
up their instruction through the use of big ideas. Framing a
teaching unit around a question such as 'Why don't we know anything
about Africa?' offers both teacher and students opportunities to
explore historical actors, ideas, and events in ways both rich and
engaging. Such an approach exemplifies the construct of ambitious
teaching, whereby teachers demonstrate their ability to marry their
deep knowledge of subject matter, students, and the school context
in ways that fundamentally challenge the claim that history is
'boring.'
