The teachers need to be trained in using the materials, and the kind of training we do helps them in understanding how to use multiple sources ? not just ours, but in other parts of their work. So it's a useful process for them to go through. |
They're very handsome books and teachers love using them. They have guides for anywhere from 5-7 lessons for the teacher to use in the class when she's teaching The Great Depression, or Reconstruction Era in the South, or Slavery in Pre-Civil War South, or World War II. For each of those 10 units we have a book, an accompanying edited videotape or DVD. In the book is a great deal of primary source material from the New York Historical Society's archives. |
