"Students should be encouraged to read multiple primary and secondary documents; to understand multiple perspectives; to learn about how some things change over time and others tend not to; and they should appreciate that each historical era has its own context and it is up to the student of history to make sense of the past on these terms and by asking questions about it."]]> 2017-06-20 15:42:53 UTC https://padlet.com/dsinor/safwwkvmkny5/wish/177000328 https://padlet.com/dsinor/safwwkvmkny5/wish/177000564 The premise of the framework is essential questions which requires students to employ critical thinking skills. AS a 7th grade teacher I feel is imperative the students are exposed to this format in elementary and more so in  the 6th grade

The one thing I did notice in teaching WH, and looking over the framework, is that it feels very Eurocentric. To that end, calling it World History seems like a misnomer.

The framework emphasizing relevance to our student population in the study of the Mexican Revolution is not only awesome, but incredibly important. Inclusively, an analysis of the Middle East is a far more relevant commentary to our student's understanding of the world and politics.]]> 2017-06-20 16:43:21 UTC https://padlet.com/dsinor/safwwkvmkny5/wish/177006374
