The Arts and the Teaching of History |
| Popis: |
The central argument of this chapter is that facility with the past is critical to developing a full sense of who we are as human beings both individually and collectively, who the other people are who share the world with us, and how we might engage together in working toward the common good. Studying the past is both a humanizing and a civic mission and is critical to contemporary life. In the chapter we bring together examples from across the book to demonstrate how using the arts in history education furthers this mission and contributes to the five scholarly conversations that frame the book. We argue that engaging the arts in history class fosters: more complex understandings of history and the nature of truth; creative cross-disciplinary connections; understanding of the relationships between history and collective memory; the introduction of Indigenous perspectives; and the development of history education. |
