Reimagining History Assignments: Creativity, Collaboration, and Critical Thinking
2026-06-25 , Room 302 (Seats 48)

This interactive, hands-on workshop invites participants to explore innovative assignment designs that promote student creativity, collaborative learning, and critical thinking in the history classroom. The facilitator will introduce a series of classroom-tested assignments that deepen historical understanding while encouraging students to imagine, interpret, and create. Following these demonstrations, participants will engage in guided design time, developing at least one new classroom-ready assignment or activity tailored to their own teaching needs. The session concludes with a sharing period to exchange ideas and adaptable strategies.
