Looking for ways to teach history through an inquiry approach? Looking for strategies to engage students with primary sources and historical thinking? Document-based questions (DBQs) are often used as a way to assess a student's historical and analytical thinking skills and argumentative writing abilities. DBQs can also be used to teach historical content, literacy, and thinking skills in a student-centered approach. This session will take teachers through all the steps of the DBQ process in a lively, interactive way, providing strategies and approaches for teaching with DBQs to all students.
Notes: This session is being presented by the DBQ Project
