Description & Features
Critical Thinking in United States History
uses fascinating original source documents and discussion-based critical
thinking methods to help students evaluate conflicting perspectives of historical
events. This process stimulates students' interest in history, improves
their historical knowledge, and develops their analytical skills for assessment
tests.
Methods For each lesson, students examine two or
more perspectives of an event using analysis and evaluation skills such
as identifying types of reasoning and evaluating sources. Through debating
historians' evidence, inferences, analogies, and assumptions, students come
away with a deeper understanding of specific events. They also learn to
examine any historical, or current, event with a more critical mind.
