      Ayers is one of the talking heads in the Reconstruction video from PBS, putting him in the esteemed company of Foner and Blight.

    I found this book, which can be previewed online, very useful as a guide for uncovering history content. Lesh provides clear examples of how to structure primary source based lessons for US History classes. I have marked up copy.

"Uncoverage" in History Survey Courses | Teachinghistory.org - 1 views

      I have a pdf of the Calder article. Let me know if you are interested in reading it.
  • Although the article focuses on college-level courses, the uncoverage concept could apply just as well to middle- and high-school classes, which are almost always taught as survey courses.
  • Too often, history survey courses focus only on "what happened," without stopping to consider the work that historians do or to inquire into the writing and reading of history.
  • Eric Beckman on 20 Oct 11
     
    Article discusses the theory behind "uncovering" history.
  • Paul Tatkenhorst on 20 Oct 11
     
    I would be interested in the article when you get the chance. Thanks for the great info Eric. I'm excited to be able to adapt this for some of my classes.
