In this hands on session participants will explore how they can bring history alive in their classroom by leveraging the power of digital tools to create lessons aligned to Common Core. We’ll explore how you can make thinking visible to create a dialogue between the past and the present. We’ll examine how you can redefine the dbq (document based question) process, allowing students to enhance their historical thinking skills by analyzing sources, making connections and understanding perspective, leading to deeper and refined writing in your classroom. Attendees will receive our eBook, Historical Thinking in the 21st Century.
