Track Talk: Assessing Historical Thinking
This talk offers a four-day lesson plan on effective strategies for teaching about the â€œage of anxiety,â€ the rise of fascism, World War II, the Holocaust, and anti-Semitism. Educators will learn how to engage challenging content by emphasizing critical historical thinking skills such as contextualization, sourcing, primary source analysis, and continuity and change over time. Significantly, this talk also explores how to help students both recognize and interrupt the continuing rise of anti-Semitism and the ways contemporary conspiracy theories often fuel it. By engaging historical thinking skills, students learn important tools to help them navigate our own age of anxiety and politics of fear.
