At the Intersection of History, Pedagogy, and Civic Life

The History Connected Project explores the ways in which the past shapes and informs the present, and how the study of history can enrich our civic lives.

Cornerstone Curriculum

Cornerstone Curriculum resources provide a foundation in historical thinking and historiography. Through structured learning activities, students practice sourcing evidence, analyzing change over time, evaluating competing narratives, and recognizing how historians construct arguments.

Core
Challenges

Core Challenges for Connected Classrooms anchor History Connected learning experiences. Inquiry Pathways, Engagement Strategies, Analysis Activities, Interpretation Exercises, and Current Connections invite students to think, question, and communicate like historians.

Context & Commentary

Context & Commentary is the project’s running blog—a space where historical insights meet present-day conversations. It’s a place for educators, students, and curious readers to explore the stories behind the stories and engage history as a living, ongoing dialogue.

Curated  Collections

Curated Collections bring together the best free resources from across the web, carefully selected to support History Connected’s core challenges. Collection highlight high-quality historical content, engaging primary and secondary sources, and practical classroom materials.
