The premise of the Teaching American History (TAH) project—a discretionary grant program funded under the U.S. Department of Education’s Elementary and Secondary Education Act— is that in order to teach history better, teachers need to know more history. Unique among professional development programs in emphasizing specific content to be taught over a particular pedagogical approach, TAH grants assist schools in implementing scientifically-based research methods for improving the quality of instruction, professional development, and teacher education in American history. Illustrating the diversity of these programs as they have been implemented in local education agencies throughout the nation, this collection of essays and research reports from TAH participants provides models for historians, teachers, teacher educators, and others interested in the teaching and learning of American History, and presents examples of lessons learned from a cross-section of TAH projects. Each chapter presents a narrative of innovation, documenting collaboration between classroom, community, and the academy that gives immediate and obvious relevance to the teaching and learning process of American history. By sharing these narratives, this book expands the impact of emerging practices from individual TAH projects to reach a larger audience across the nation.

Excerpt from The Teaching of American History: With Selected References Designed to Accompany a History of the American Nation This guide or outline has been prepared chiefly for teachers who are using the History of the American Nation. Its purpose is to direct them to additional material which will aid them in the conduct of their work. It is not expected, of course, that all of the books referred to can be studied either by teacher or pupil; but the exact references will, it is hoped, be of service to those who have not always the time or opportunity to seek out collateral matter for reading or study.

“Should be in the hands of every history teacher in the country.”— Howard Zinn James Loewen has revised Teaching What Really Happened, the bestselling, go-to resource for social studies and history teachers wishing to break away from standard textbook retellings of the past. In addition to updating the scholarship and anecdotes throughout, the second edition features a timely new chapter entitled "Truth" that addresses how traditional and social media can distort current events and the historical record. Helping students understand what really happened in the past will empower them to use history as a tool to argue for better policies in the present. Our society needs engaged citizens now more than ever, and this book offers teachers concrete ideas for getting students excited about history while also teaching them to read critically. It will specifically help teachers and students tackle important content areas, including Eurocentrism, the American Indian experience, and slavery. Book Features: An up-to-date assessment of the potential and pitfalls of U.S. and world history education. Information to help teachers expect, and get, good performance from students of all racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Strategies for incorporating project-oriented self-learning, having students conduct online historical research, and teaching historiography. Ideas from teachers across the country who are empowering students by teaching what really happened. Specific chapters dedicated to five content topics usually taught poorly in today’s schools.

No invention, no conformity to a new mode of living, was ever brought about by an individual or community except to meet some definite need. Some obstacle, some difficulty, arose which had to be overcome. For example, the invention of the cotton gin was the result of a need for an improvement over the slow and tedious method of separating the seed from the fiber, by hand. In like manner, the edict passed by the Emperor of China in 1905 giving western education a place in the Chinese schools grew out of the feeling that China was in need of such a civilization. Granting this, the subject of history, which is an account of the development and growth of societies or nations, in its several phases, religious, political, social and institutional, is the result of various difficulties or problems which have presented themselves during this development. The best and most logical method of teaching history in the high school is to place it before the student in the form of problems, each smaller problem contributing to the solving of the main problem, or general movement. To do this, it is necessary to place the student, in so far as it is possible, in an imaginary situation similar to that in which those, who have been confronted with these difficulties, have found themselves. In this way, the student, knowing the chief difficulties and problems which have beset the race, comes into closer contact with the past, such thoughts and feelings are the real content of history. When the student is brought thus into contact with the thoughts and emotions, he is in a better position to interpret events because events are but signs of the inner thoughts of the race. The position that history should be taught in the form of problems will be maintained in this thesis, which presents considerations on the method worked out with a fourth-year class in American history in the Teachers College High School during the year 1908-1909.
