Using inquiry-based instruction to encourage teachers' historical thinking at historic sites

This study explores the use of inquiry-based instruction for constructing historical understanding in historic site-based teacher professional development programs. In an historic site-based professional development workshop, fifteen teachers of grades 5 through 12 engaged in guided inquiry with documents drawn from said historic site. Participants showed significantly increased curiosity about the site and use of problem-solving strategies in interactions with the site and staff, but no improvement in other elements related to historical thinking at historic sites. Improvements correlated to neither length of teaching experience nor testing group characteristics, indicating broad applicability for improving historic site-based professional development programs.

两汉是经学的昌明时代,就儒家经传的诠释而言,因五经立于学官而出现所谓今古文与师法家法之分,并在此基础上形成了汉注特有的灾异说经与注重章句训诂的解经特色。而两汉《谷梁经传》诠释,既凸显了这两大特色,又在形式与内容上具有《春秋》学特有的"日、月、时"例发微与浓重的伦理、礼法思想。
