Dia da Consciencia Negra A historia da menina Ruby Bridges - 0 views

  •  
    Com 6 anos de idade, Ruby tornou-se voluntária, pelos seus pais, para participar de um procedimento de integração em uma escola de "All-Whites". O acontecimento foi proporcionado pela NAACP - Associação Nacional para o Progresso de Pessoas de Cor -, tornando Ruby a primeira aluna afro-americana em um escola no sul, chamada "William Frantz Elementary School", de Nova Orleans. Sem dúvida, em palavras o acontecimento tem seus méritos. Contudo, o que pensar se observamos a famosa foto ao lado? Antes de Ruby chegar ao colégio pela primeira vez, os pais entraram nas salas e retiraram seus filhos do local. Os professores também se recusaram a dar aula, com exceção de uma, chamada Barbara Henry. A menina de 6 anos teve "aulas particulares" na escola durante aproximadamente 1 ano com essa professora.

How to Incorporate Character Education in the Social Studies Classroom - 8 views

  •  
    Schools will punish students who do not display proper behavior, but they rarely model the right behavior, rendering the punishment useless. Social studies content allows for character exploration as a reasonable tangent, making it the social studies teacher's responsibility to incorporate it when possible.

World History Connected: EJournal of Learning and Teaching - 6 views

  •  
    Has articles and some source material links related to World History. The site (run out of University of Illinois, by the looks) has a strong focus on 'big history.' I hadn't encountered this term before; it seems to mean looking at history not through civilisations but rather periods or regions. If that description is wrong and someone could provide more accuracy on 'big history' that would be cool.

    The journal focuses on the New World History (looking at the world at a global scale across time) as opposed to the one civilization at a time approach. See the World History AP course description for an example of what this means: http://www.collegeboard.com/prod_downloads/ap/students/worldhistory/ap-cd-worldhist-0708.pdf David, as an Australian you are at Ground Zero of Big History since its leader is an Australian = David Christian. Christian's _Maps of Time: An Introduction to Big History_ is the one book to read on the subject. This article well covers it: http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/whc/3.1/christian.html Google David Christian, Big History for more
  •  
    Again, the journal is not specifically focused on Big History but on the New World History, but it did have one issue on Big History as its forum: http://worldhistoryconnected.press.illinois.edu/6.3/ More links than you probably want here about Big History: http://worldhistoryconnected.press.illinois.edu/6.3/maunu2.html This month's forum is on Latin America. Other forums range the gamut of world history.

Nuremberg Trials Project -- Guide to Document Searching - 0 views

  •  
    Contains thousands of documents from the Nuremberg Trials. Search function is excellent, too. Very organised. I like organised.
  •  
    The Harvard Law School Library has approximately one million pages of documents relating to the trial of military and political leaders of Nazi Germany before the International Military Tribunal (IMT) and to the twelve trials of other accused war criminals before the United States Nuremberg Military Tribunals (NMT). The documents, which include trial transcripts, briefs, document books, evidence files, and other papers, have been studied by lawyers, scholars, and other researchers in the areas of history, ethics, genocide, and war crimes, and are of particular interest to officials and students of current international tribunals involving war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Secrets of Great History Teachers - 0 views

  •  
    Interviews with 17 great history teachers. What an excellent idea! The most I have ever learnt about teaching was from watching exceptional teachers, so this should be useful.
  •  
    In these interviews distinguished teachers share their strategies and techniques. Good teaching is more often honored in rhetoric than reality. And great teachers are generally known locally within their own schools, but less often to a larger group of national colleagues. Our goal in this section is, in part, to identify and honor those people who have taught with excellence, dedication, and distinction.
