HA Webinar: Teaching disciplinary knowledge directly: sources
Direct history teaching

Event Type: CPD
Takes Place: 30th June 2025
Time: 4pm - 5pm
Venue: Zoom
Description: In this fifth session, Jacob and Mike will argue that 'source work' often doesn’t work. They will suggest that common classroom approaches to sources are often ineffective and inaccessible. Instead, they will share examples of lessons that teach pupils very directly about sources – rather than getting them to do 'source work'.
