Taylor & Francis New Directions in Assessing Historical Thinking
Book SynopsisNew technologies have radically transformed our relationship to information in general and to little bits of information in particular. The assessment of history learning, which for a century has valued those little bits as the centerpiece of its practice, now faces not only an unprecedented glut but a disconnect with what is valued in history education. More complex processeshistorical thinking, historical consciousness or historical sense makingdemand more complex assessments. At the same time, advances in scholarship on assessment open up new possibilities. For this volume, Kadriye Ercikan and Peter Seixas have assembled an international array of experts who have, collectively, moved the fields of history education and assessment forward. Their various approaches negotiate the sometimes-conflicting demands of theoretical sophistication, empirically demonstrated validity and practical efficiency. Key issues include articulating the cognitive goals of history educatioTable of ContentsPrefaceAcknowledgementsContributor BiographiesIntroductionPart I: Goals of History Education: Models of Historical Cognition and Learning1 Historical Consciousness in Germany: Concept, Implementation, AssessmentCarlos Kölbl & Lisa Konrad2 The Difficulty of Assessing Disciplinary Historical ReadingAbby Reisman3 Heritage as a Resource for Enhancing and Assessing Historical Thinking: Reflections from the NetherlandsCarla van Boxtel, Maria Grever & Stephan Klein4 Relating Historical Consciousness to Historical Thinking through AssessmentCatherine DuquetteCommentary 1 Into the Swampy Lowlands of Important ProblemsRobert B.
