Every Place an Historic Place: A Primer
Baron, Christine
Social Education, v84 n5 p319-322, 324-325, 328 Oct 2020
When the author tells people that her research focuses on how people teach and learn with historic places, the first response is usually "Oh, I love field trips." This sensibility, that field trips are required to teach about a place, is the single greatest barrier to understanding what can be learned from Place. Every Place is an Historic Place. To start teaching with Historic Places the author recommends taking time to apply this idea within the school building, or another Place of interest. The structure of this article can be used to engage in a guided inquiry of that Place.
