"A Primer for Teaching Digital History presents ten design principles integrating history and technology in classrooms. The book seeks to assist teachers in building their competency and competence in digital history. In a digital history classroom, the stories we want to tell can fundamentally interrogate not just what histories are told but how we tell them and who has access to them. A Primer for Teaching Digital History provides overviews of how differing historians articulate and enact their own digital history through classrooms. Examples illustrate how digital history remains tied to the fundamentals of historical scholarship, evidence and argument but also challenge us to think broadly about what the digital means and can be in history. The Primer represents the possibilities enabled by using digital methods and forms of scholarship as they exist in history classrooms from middle school through collegiate contexts today"-- Provided by publisher.

"A Primer for Teaching Digital History is a guide for college and high school teachers who are teaching digital history for the first time or for experienced teachers who want to reinvigorate their pedagogy. It can also serve those who are training future teachers to prepare their own syllabi, as well as teachers who want to incorporate digital history into their history courses. Offering design principles for approaching digital history that represent the possibilities that digital research and scholarship can take, Jennifer Guiliano outlines potential strategies and methods for building syllabi and curriculum. Taking readers through the process of selecting data, identifying learning outcomes, and determining which tools students will use in the classroom, Guiliano outlines popular research methods including digital source criticism, text analysis, and visualization. She also discusses digital archives, exhibits, and collections as well as audiovisual and mixed-media narratives such as short documentaries, podcasts, and multimodal storytelling. Throughout, Guiliano illuminates how digital history can enhance understandings of not just what histories are told but how they are told and who has access to them"-- Provided by publisher.
