New possibilities for the past : shaping history education in Canada / edited by Penney Clark.

Clark, Penney, 1950- (Added Author).

Summary:

"This collection explores and articulates the landscape of history education research and practice in Canada. It does this to help define and refine the research agenda in history teaching and practice, which at the present time take place against a backdrop of public concern about Canadians' abysmal knowledge of their own history and a perceived need for more, and then even more, Canadian history in schools. It is crucial that scholarly research be pursued thoughtfully and in a cohesive manner and that classroom practice be informed by the finding of this research."--Introduction.
