Making Connections

Ashley Hartman

Do you have favorite activities or discussion prompts that encourage students to identify patterns, draw comparisons, or analyze long-term developments? I’d love to hear how you guide students to expand their historical thinking and make meaningful connections across time periods!

    Ashley Hartman , at my school we're lucky to have a diverse faculty, so I've had panels of faculty members come in for post-colonial panel discussions with WH students.  The first year I did it, we had a post-colonial Africa panel, featuring faculty from Uganda, Tanzania, Algeria, and South Africa, and then a post-colonial Asia panel with faculty from Malaysia, Korea, and India, and this year a post-colonial Caribbean panel featuring faculty from Puerto Rico and Barbados. I ask panelists to give a 5 minute intro, then have questions prepared, and take questions from students.  It's inspiring to see how they bring things together, and it helps them get to know teachers too.
