Citizenship through Secondary History reveals the potential of history to engage with citizenship education and includes: a review of the links between citizenship education and the teaching and learning of history an analysis of how citizenship education is characterised, raising key issues about what could and should be achieved a critique of the discipline and the pitfalls to avoid in teaching citizenship through history case studies offering practical teaching suggestions. History teaching is at the vanguard of citizenship education - the past is the springboard from which citizens learn to think and act. This book offers positive and direct ways to get involved in the thinking that must underpin any worthwhile citizenship education, for all professional teachers, student teachers in history, policy-makers, heads of department and principals.

Addressing education for citizenship and the teaching of democracy in schools, the final report of the advisory group set up by the Secretary of State for Education notes a need for citizenship education as a distinct part of the curriculum, but also recognizes that "it can be taught in combination with other subjects". It highlights history as one of the key subjects. This book defines the contribution that history can make to citizenship and democracy education, and which it must make if citizenship education is to be effective in a crowded curriculum. It addresses both the ways in which the content and the pedagogy of the secondary history curriculum can contribute to the teaching of citizenship and ways in which the proposed content of the curriculum for citizenship can be addressed through history. Theoretical discussion is used to provide a platform for the presentation of practical teaching suggestions. The use of case studies in the final section clarifies classroom issues.

The author covers topics such as the German invasion of Belgium and France; the war on the Western Front; the portrayal of the war by the press; governments and artists; the war in the air and at sea; the impact of the war on the Home Front; the Gallipoli campaign and war on the other fronts. With an enquiry-based approach, the book is structured around key investigations, background briefings and reviews of the topics covered. Using a wide range of sources, vivid pictorial evidence, maps and diagrams, Andrew Wrenn has produced a text that will be both manageable in extent and accessible and motivating to a wide range of students.
