Taylor & Francis Teaching History with Film
Book SynopsisTeaching History with Film provides a fresh, engaging, and clear overview of teaching with film to effectively enhance social studies instruction. Using cases of experienced teachers to illustrate accomplished history teaching through movies, this text provides pre- and in-service teachers with ideas for implementing film-based lessons in their own classrooms and offers a deeper understanding of the thorny issues involved in using film to teach history. The second edition is completely revised and updated including: two entirely new case studies; a new chapter focusing on using international film and incorporating a more global view in the classroom; and additional material on using film to tackle difficult and controversial issues; as well as updates to all of the cases. Each section of the book focuses on how teachers can effectively support the development of studentsâ historical film literacy through topics such as using film to develop interpretive skills, to exTrade Review‘Film gives the history teacher rich opportunity to investigate stories of the past as contestable interpretations, but this is not a simple task. This book provides real help in this mission by providing a practical blend of theory, analysis and teaching program exemplars. This 2nd edition is up-dated and the addition of chapters on foreign films and difficult histories give currency and an international focus and appeal. A must for teachers across all stages of education who wish to motivate, engage and inspire today’s visually-orientated students.’ —Debra Donnelly is Senior Lecturer and Program Coordinator for History Education at University of Newcastle ‘The significance of the 2nd edition of Teaching History with Film goes beyond introducing history educators to the potential and provisos for teaching with the increasing number of historical feature films and documentaries—including foreign films—that are consumed everyday as part of our cultural curriculum. The power of this book lies in how the authors bring together and clearly explicate theory and research with real world case studies of innovative and powerful teaching that illuminate ambitious and authentic ways to facilitate the teaching of historical media literacy in an era where teaching for historical literacy is needed more than ever.’ —David Hicks is Professor of History and Social Science Education in the School of Education at Virginia Tech‘Film gives the history teacher rich opportunity to investigate stories of the past as contestable interpretations, but this is not a simple task.

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.

Cambridge University Press The Reconstruction of the Church of Ireland
Book SynopsisThis 2007 study shows how in the 1630s Thomas Wentworth, Archbishop Laud and Bishop Bramhall together embarked on an ambitious and highly controversial reconstruction of the Church of Ireland. It examines the course and eventual failure of reforms explicitly implemented as a model for the other Stuart kingdoms.Trade ReviewReview of the hardback: 'McCafferty's analysis of the Irish Reformation is compelling, and the research underpinning it is impressive especially given the deficient state of the Irish ecclesiastical archives.' Journal of Ecclesiastical HistoryReview of the hardback: 'John McCafferty's industriously researched and judiciously argued monograph offers a powerful, wide-ranging, and compelling account of the Laudian reforms that is unlikely to be superseded. He is meticulous and imaginative in his use of surviving sources that are often either fragmentary or technically demanding. He combines this with a very thorough reading of the voluminous correspondence of the lord deputy, Thomas Wentworth; Archbishop William Laud; and, most of all, the agent who stood at the heart of the reform program, John Bramhall, bishop of Derry. All this helps McCafferty to create a fascinating and illuminating study of policy formulation and implementation that shows a thorough understanding both of the sometimes complex motivation of the policymakers and of the messy reality of their policies on the ground.' The Catholic Historical ReviewTable of Contents1. Introduction; 2. The temporalities campaign, 1633–40; 3. The convocation of 1634 and its aftermath; 4. Mechanisms of reconstruction and the problem of dissent; 5. Downfall of the settlement, 1640–1; 6. Conclusion; Appendix: three letters; Bibliography; Index.
