Thinking Beyond Dates and Facts: Integrating Historical Thinking Across the Curriculum (Grades 7-12)

In today's classrooms, students need more than content knowledge-they need the ability to think critically, evaluate information, and understand context. Thinking Beyond Dates and Facts: Integrating Historical Thinking Across the Curriculum (Grades 7-12) is a 3-week asynchronous course that empowers educators to embed these essential skills into any subject area. Participants will explore how historical thinking practices-like analyzing evidence, considering multiple perspectives, and examining cause and effect-can transform everyday lessons into opportunities for deeper learning. By the end of the course, educators will leave with practical strategies, fresh perspectives, and ready-to-use lessons that promote critical thinking, engagement, and meaningful, real-world connections.
