For Public History and U.S. History Classes

This site is a work in progress, but the teaching guides for public history and U.S. history classes are ready (and will continue to grow with new links and teaching strategies).  For public history classes and staff development workshops, also see the President’s House Case Study, which offers a step-by-step encounter with the process of marking the site of the President’s House in Philadelphia, including the challenge of acknowledging slavery in close proximity to the Liberty Bell.  I welcome feedback from colleagues who are teaching with Independence Hall in American Memory, and I hope you will add your teaching suggestions to these online guides.
