What is the future for (history) teaching?
History textbooks ‘replaced’ by a ream of Internet data and content delivered by presenters on Youtube
Unprecedented age in education?Age of distraction, Age of personalisation
Age of overwhelming data, Age of need for discerning choices

History teaching as “sharing stories”
connecting through conversations
History teaching as sorting and sifting through the data; gathering and analysing the evidence
History teaching as listening
to each other, to multiple narratives and the open-endedness of stories
Curious about how we have been designing and engaging with history in
a digital world?
“Children don’t get ideas, they make ideas ... better learning will not come from finding better ways for the teacher to instruct but
from giving the learner better opportunities to construct.”
Seymour Papert Maker Culture
Year 8 ... Making History
Historical Fiction powerful teaching/learning strategy - personalized history because it evoked emotional response
We asked students to also think about the ‘space’ they were using to connect with the historical novel to enhance their metacognition
‘space’ individualphysicalvirtualgroup

conversational
Students made websites using
All Quiet on Western Front
Historical Fiction to promote strong engagement with period“walking in shoes” of particular character
Re-Making History Creatively Together
History and the Electronic Portfolio
Year 10 History as Sharing Stories
Migrant Experiences Australian Curriculum History
Asked students to research a successful Australian migrant and write a script and create short video to tell their story
History teaching as sorting Actively teaching how to research so students don’t get distracted or lost ....
How are your students thinking about sources?
When sourcing articles in Google do they use country codes eg site:sy arab spring
site:ir site:fr site:eg site:tn arab spring
Do your students know their country code operators for research purposes?
teach them to be discerning and narrow their search results
explicit teaching about primary source work on Google
Designing online learning involves discussion about the online research process
What Google operators are the students using?
Are we teaching our students about Google Operators?
Are your students
comparing search results?
type into Google
url:history causes world war 1causes of world war 1
What is the difference in number of search results?How do you believe the conversational space
might change in the classroom?
Activity for workshop
And by who?Think of learning of
the future as being co-created ....
Are your students looking to see what has been
made online ?

History as Listening to Others1. Use of discussion forums to gauge
if we are listening and interacting to develop a conversation
2. Use of programs like Edpuzzle and Zaption to gauge whether we are really listening and making meaning
3. set timer to make sure we get a chance to talk?
peer to peer teaching
EdPuzzle and Adaptive Learning
Are you making students active listeners to Youtube?Are you monitoring their engagement?
https://edpuzzle.com/media/541ffb12e365772327de1cb9 Are you
implementing adaptive learning?
Constructivist Approaches to history teaching1. Students constructing meaning with
different spaces 2. Participatory environment & instant
feedback3. Maintaining sense of narrative and
inquiry that connects the past, present and future through our conversations digital and face to face
4. Getting students to engage through making, re-creating and publishing work
