Webinar: Teaching Historical Texts as History and Literature
Date: Thursday, March 19
Time: 4:00 - 5:00pm MST
See attached flyer
Description: Why do some historical documents become blueprints for the future while others are forgotten? The answer lies in the tension between a document's historical evidence and its rhetorical power. While the historian investigates the document to interpret the past, the ELA scholar deconstructs it as a crafted message engineered to move an audience. Join us for a webinar where we move beyond dry summaries to show how social studies and ELA teachers can team up to help students crack the code of influential historical texts.
Presenters:
Dr. Naomi Watkins, Secondary ELA Specialist, Utah State Board of Education
Dr. Jeff Nokes, Associate Professor of History, Brigham Young University
