History assessment SocialStudies primary sources

Nancy McCullen on 13 Oct 13

Beyond the Bubble unlocks the vast digital archive of the Library of Congress to create a new generation of history assessments. Developed by the Stanford History Education Group (http://sheg.stanford.edu), Beyond the Bubble is the cornerstone of SHEG's membership in the Library of Congress's Teaching with Primary Sources Educational Consortium. We "go beyond the bubble" by offering easy-to-use assessments that capture students' knowledge in action - rather than their recall of discrete facts.

Because these problems can supplement and enliven traditional mathematics courses in a variety of ways, we have included materials to assist in using Stella problems in your teaching: "
