Recognising Point
of View - Student Backgorunder Sheet
One of the most important
skills and historian can have is the ability to determine where an
author is coming from when they are writing about an historical topic.
It is the duty and the job of historians to be able to determine
the position or set of concerns, from which something is observed,
presented or considered. Historians try to determine what a person's
point of view (perspective, angle, standpoint) is surrounding a topic. |

"History
as Story and Stories in History"
Ian
Hundey, Educational Consultant and Writer, OISE / UT
We
understand history as being the story of our past. We often make
personal sense of history by relating it to our own stories or family
stories. We tell stories from history; we read stories set in the
past. Good stories in history engage us intellectually and emotionally,
provide us with insights, and allow us to feel empathy for people.
We see and feel the stories in historical documents, in visual evidence,
in old buildings, in museum artifacts and in treasured antiques.
We recognize that "story" and "history" are
tightly linked.

Listen,
Empathize, Analyze
Marc Keirstead, Secondary Consultant, York Region C.D.S.B.
Teaching
primary sources has always been a challenge for teachers. Primary
sources can include oral sources which allow students to empathize
with the personality and gain insights. The focus is on listening
skills and how they can be employed with oral primary sources to
allow all students to gain some insights into personalities and
events. Strategies and a list of resources are provided. |
