Summary: "This book will be written primarily by teachers and for teachers. In other words, we are hoping K-16 practitioners of United States History will find this book as a theory-based, but practical guide for supporting inquiry-oriented instruction through film in the history classroom. A secondary audience for the book could be school districts who may include the text for professional development purpose, as well as college-level teacher educators who would certainly find the book valuable in their social studies methods classes. As an aside, we know each of these audiences well and feel that the text would be well-received given our experiences in the field. With the introduction of the new NCSS C3 frameworks and the focus on ELA Common Core Standards in social studies courses, we expect K-12 teachers to use this book as a guide for developing and implementing inquiry-based classroom experiences that focus on informational texts, reading, writing, and critical thinking more generally, each of which are

内容説明

Teaching and learning through Hollywood, or commercial, film productions is anything but a new approach and has been something of a mainstay in the classroom for nearly a century. Purposeful and effective instruction through film, however, is not problem-free and there are many challenges that accompany classroom applications of Hollywood motion pictures. In response to the problems and possibilities associated with teaching through film, we have collaboratively developed a collection ofpractical, classroom-ready lesson ideas that might bridge gaps between theory and practice and assist teachers endeavoring to make effective use of film in their classrooms. We believe that film can serve as a powerful tool in the social studies classroom and, where appropriately utilized, foster critical thinking and civic mindedness. The College, Career, and Civic Life (C3) framework, represents a renewed and formalized emphasis on the perennial social studies goals of deep thinking, reading and writing. We believe that as teachers endeavor to digest and implement the platform in schools and classrooms across the country, the desire for access to structured strategies that lead to more active and rigorous investigation in the social studies classroom will grow increasingly acute. Our hope is that this edited book might play a small role in the larger project of supporting practitioners, specifically K-16 teachers of United States history, by offering a collection of classroom-ready tools based on the Hollywood or History? strategy and designed to foster historical inquiry through the careful use of historically themed motion pictures. The book consists of K-5 and 6-12 lesson plans addressing each the following historical eras (Adapted from: UCLA, National Center for History in Schools).
