Resources for Teaching
This page is a hub for sharing tools, projects, matertials and more that I've developed or carefully curated for use in both undergraduate and graduate courses. These resources are crafted to foster critical thinking skills, support active learning, and inspire innovative engagement for 21st Century learners with historical topics.
Whether your an educator seeking fresh approaches, a student eager to deepen your understanding of historical methods, or simply someone with a passion for history, I hope you'll find these materials to be practical, engaging, and thought-provoking.

Primary Source Analysis Worksheet
|
There are a lot of great resources available for helping students work through primary sources. Over my years teaching, I've worked to shift the language from the worksheets I've encountered to make them more clear and accessible to students who have never before been asked to look at a source past its surface.
In its current iteration, this worksheet helps me guide students through what it means to do history, not only read historical sources. At the start of each semester I as my students to pick something that most of their peers would be familiar with from at least 10 years prior - a song, a TV show, a movie - and then we treat it like a historical document. It's always amusing - and it always results in my students understanding the process better than they had before.
