Teaching American History: An Inquiry Approach (Teacher to Teacher Publications)

Put new life into the teaching of Columbus! This book offers an insightful description of inquiry teaching and shows―through classroom exercises, writing assignments, discussion topics, and thoughtful reading selections―how to apply inquiry to the topic of Columbus in the New World. Rather than providing a “recipe” approach to teaching, Barlowe provokes us to think more deeply about what we teach, why we teach it, and how to engage students in the ever-fascinating study of history, an “argument without end.”
