Title: Topics in American History
Course Section Number: HIS-240-01
Department: History
Description: EDU 370-01 = HIS 240-01: Social Studies Education for Democratic Citizenship This course takes a "difficult questions" approach to explore the ways in which social studies education in the U.S. must grapple with complex historic content--and sometimes fails to do so adequately. Topics explored include: history curriculum related to immigrant history, slavery, and indigenous peoples; geography approaches such as critical geography to focus upon power relationships; and instruction in U.S. government and economy including the history and nature of social contract, separation of powers, and individual rights and freedoms.
