Designing A Creative History Course: A Model

Abstract

In this study history teaching is revisited together with current debates concerning the conception of “history” and “historical consciousness”, and a new course design is proposed in order to overcome existing problems. The new design is elaborated and explicated step-by-step in accordance with contemporary instructional design theories. Any discussion that would possibly follow from implementation of the study is not within the scope of the present paper as it is rather intended to be introductory for later studies in which the new course is to be implemented and analyzed.
