Summary "The Teaching of History" by E. C. Hartwell is an educational guide published in the early 20th century, specifically in 1913. The book focuses on teaching methods for high school history educators, addressing practical techniques for delivering engaging lessons and fostering a deep appreciation of historical study among students. It examines the principles behind effective instruction and the significant social purposes that teaching history serves, thus advocating a shift from rote learning to a more meaningful engagement with the subject. In this monograph, Hartwell emphasizes the importance of methodical preparation, emphasizing the need for teachers to create a structured learning environment that encourages critical thinking and analysis. He discusses strategies for assigning lessons, facilitating recitations, and incorporating various modes of review that enhance students’ understanding of historical concepts. Additionally, he addresses the use of written reports and examinations as tools to assess students' progress and encourage active learning. The book ultimately aims to improve history education by advocating for methods that connect past events with present-day relevance, making history a living subject that resonates with students.
