Synopsis
Explores how pupils make sense of the past, and the relationship between how historians construct interpretations of the past and how pupils learn history in schools. Husbands (education, U. of Warwick, England) draws on his own teaching experience as well as the field's literature to analyze four approaches to learning history: looking at evidence, the language of the past, story, and imagination. He also considers how classroom talk, writing, and assessment can encourage a sophisticated understanding of the past. Distributed in the US by Taylor and Francis.
