Welcome to the official site of the History SoTL: An International Society for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning in History. This site profiles the latest scholarship, current queries and comments, and resources for publishing and funding.
The September issue of the History SoTL Newsletter is now available online.
In this issue, Peter Seixas, recommends “historical consciousness” as an analytical concept capable of bringing together the study of collective memory and of history education. “By setting debates about history education in the broader context of collective memory practices,” he argues, “we can help to move the debates about teaching and learning history beyond the relatively narrow terms within which they have often been pursued to date. At the same time, the normative concerns and questions that have been at the forefront of history education scholarship can help to inform the scholarship on collective memory.”
Continuing a theme established in previous issues, Emilios Solomou illuminates the development and politics of history teaching in Cyprus.
