This is the second book in a series of four, each one tailor-made
for one of the first four study units of the new curriculum. A
teacher's book accompanies each student's book and offers 60
copymasters with a wide range of activities for all abilities.
Clear, lively pages are designed to interest and create excitement
about the past, whilst an emphasis on a learning pattern, through
careful steps, should lead all students, including low achievers,
to a real understanding of history.
MasterClass in History Education draws on international research
and practice to present effective and engaging approaches for
history teachers who want to explore the ways in which reading,
research and reflection can support the development of history
teaching and learning in the classroom. At the heart of the book is
a series of professional enquiries carried out by experienced
history teachers, working in a range of contexts. Each history
teacher addresses clear questions arising from their practice and
together they illustrate various approaches to data collection,
data analysis and argument. These history teachers also show how
they drew on diverse scholarship in history and history education,
including many publications by other history teachers. In eight
further chapters, other experts, ranging from practitioner-scholars
to researchers in diverse fields (such as history, history
education, teacher education, teacher research and curriculum
theory) reflect on the distinctive insights that these teachers
offer and explore connections with their own fields. The
combination of perspectives and the depth of knowledge of the
varied contributors reveal the importance of different kinds of
relationship between 'theory' and 'practice'. The links between
classroom realities and research and the critical use of different
kinds of text will support history teachers in developing their
practice and professional voice.

Britain during the Industrial Age. The first covers industrial

cities, religion, migration, science and technology, and the role
of women. The final section explores power roles: the power of the
people, restoration of Parliament, and chartism. An engaging book
that involves students in the study of history by raising
thought-provoking questions and by providing activities to
reinforce the topics studied.
