All of the enquiries are built around the principles for success in the history classroom. The intention is to make history meaningful by focusing enquiries around personal stories, particular places or puzzles and problems to be solved. Early in the course the focus is on music:
- How much can the song, Stalin wasn’t stalling reveal to us about who really won WW2?
- Was OMD’s 1980 hit Enola Gay right about the dropping of the A bomb?
Once the engaging start has hooked students in, the carefully planned sequence of steps are used to gather the evidence needed to answer the big question.
Feedback from plenty of teachers tells us that the narrative account questions are the types of questions they fear the most. To help support you here we have taken a progressive approach to teaching these question types across the entire course. They appear in these different enquiries:
- How much can we trust an internet sites tell us the truth about the Berlin Blockade?
- How real was detente?
- Who was to blame for the Second Cold War?
