What Happened Here? High School and Preservice Teachers’ Engagement With History at Local Historic Sites
Sat, April 13, 11:25am to 12:55pm, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Floor: Level 100, Room 111ASession Type: Symposium
Abstract
In this symposium, we explore how high school students and preservice teachers respond to learning racialized histories at controversial monuments, historic plantation sites, and local historic sites. These papers highlight the various ways that preservice teachers and high school students engage with what they learn, raising questions about how students of Color make sense of the histories they learn, and how preservice teachers plan to engage their future students in learning about racialized histories.
