DESCRIPTION:This panel examines how historical perspective can be systemati
 cally designed\, implemented\, and analyzed in middle school world history
  classrooms in Korea. In an era of globalization\, the ability to understa
 nd perspectives shaped by different historical contexts has become increas
 ingly important. Although historical perspective is widely recognized as c
 entral to historical thinking\, students often struggle to move beyond pre
 sentist or relativist interpretations.\nWe conceptualize historical perspe
 ctive across three interrelated domains. Contemporaneous perspective refer
 s to understanding how historical actors interpreted events within the soc
 ial\, political\, and cultural conditions of their own time. Historiograph
 ical perspective concerns how later historians and interpreters construct 
 differing accounts of the same event based on distinct questions\, values\
 , and evidentiary frameworks. Cross-temporal perspective involves comparin
 g and synthesizing perspectives from different temporal positions\, examin
 ing how interpretations shift across time.\nPaper 1 presents the design pr
 inciples of ten inquiry-based curriculum units built around widely used pr
 imary sources in Korean middle school textbooks. The materials articulate 
 a staged progression across the three domains of perspective. Paper 2 anal
 yzes 1\,020 student responses generated through classroom implementation i
 n ten schools\, identifying patterns in students’ recognition and explan
 ation of historical perspective. Paper 3 offers an in-depth analysis of cr
 oss-temporal perspective through close examination of students’ written 
 conclusions on selected modern topics. Together\, the panel clarifies the 
 epistemic challenges of perspective learning and suggests instructional di
 rections for world history education.
