Thoughts/Resources found that could be useful for Annotated Bibliography No results obtained, I wonder if it has something to do with the use of parenthesis. More results were obtained however 105 results is still a lot to go through. I did however find a couple of valid sources, which could be good to further explore. I think for next search I will add the parentheses back into my search string however I wont make the terms as specific. Savagian, J. C. (2009). Toward a Coherent Curriculum: Teaching and Learning History at Alverno College. The Journal of American History. Vol 95 (4). P 1114-1124. Wiersma, A. (2008). A study of the Teaching Methods of High School History Teachers. The Social Studies. Vol 99 (3). P. 111-116. Interestingly, all results are from the dissertation and theses source category. Lee, M. (2006). Promoting historical inquiry using secondary sources. This looked like a really interesting paper, however unfortunately I cannot find a full copy online. However it has given me some search ideas as I would like to look at developing inquiry based learning through secondary sources as this is a really important skill for History students. Laney, J. D. (2008). Teenagers doing History out of school: An intrinsic case study of situated learning in History (Dissertation). University of North Texas. The case study examines a community-based history expedition implemented as a project-based, voluntary, out-of-school history activity. An interesting look at different research methods within a history class and possibly a way to engage students in inquiry based learning. Decided it would be good to widen my search strings, so I dropped modern to just history. I think I was restricting my searches and essentially I just need to know about inquiry learning in a history classroom as the techniques will be fairly similar across the history disciplines. After retrieving 28 results, I decided to further narrow them down by only looking at scholarly journals. This narrowed my results down to 7. Lehman, K. (2010). Bring history alive with primary sources. Library Media Connection, 28(5), 30-31. At first glance this article looks like it could be quite good, it discusses how to promote inquiry learning and bring history alive using primary sources. This is especially relevant in Modern History, as quite often assessments will be based around critical analysis of primary sources.
