Preparing the Next Generation of Oral Historians is an invaluable resource to educators seeking to bring history alive for students at all levels. The anthology opens with chapters on the fundamentals of oral history and its place in the classroom, but its heart lies in nearly two dozen insightful personal essays by educators who have successfully incorporated oral history into their own teaching. Filled with step by step descriptions and positive student feedback, these chapters offers practical suggestions on creating curricula, engaging students, gathering community support, and meeting educational standards. Lanman and Wendling open each chapter with thoughtful questions that guide readers, whether unfamiliar with oral history or seeking to refine their approach, in applying the examples to their own classrooms. The bibliography of further resources at the anthology's close provides interested educators with all the information necessary to transform their lessons and show their students' history's power as a living force within their own lives and communities.

This book documents the "brave new world" of teacher,
administrator, school, and student accountability that has swept
across the United States in recent years. Its particular vantage
point is the perspective of dozens of new teachers trying to make
their way through their first months and years working in schools
in the New York City metropolitan area. The issues they grapple
with are not, however, unique to this context, but common problems
found today in urban, suburban, and rural schools across the United
States. The stories in this book offer a compelling portrait of
these teachers' encounters with the new culture of accountability
and the strategies they develop for coping, even succeeding, within
such demanding settings.
