history of world societies mckay 8th edition: Teaching Global History Alan J. Singer, 2012-04-27 Teaching Global History challenges prospective and beginning social studies teachers to formulate their own views about what is important to know in global history and why. It explains how to organize the curriculum around broad social studies concepts and themes and student questions about humanity, history, and the contemporary world. All chapters include lesson ideas, a sample lesson plan with activity sheets, primary source documents, and helpful charts, graphs, photographs, and maps. High school students’ responses are woven in throughout. Additional material corresponding to each chapter is posted online at http://people.hofstra.edu/alan_j_singer. The traditional curriculum tends to highlight the Western heritage, and to race through epochs and regions, leaving little time for an in-depth exploration of concepts and historical themes, for the evaluation of primary and secondary sources, and for students to draw their own historical conclusions. Offering an alternative to such pre-packaged textbook outlines and materials, this text is a powerful resource for promoting thoughtful reflection and debate about what the global history curriculum should be and how to teach it. |

history of world societies mckay 8th edition: The Book World Nicola Louise Wilson, 2016-05-18 British literature underwent profound changes in the period 1900-1940. What role did audiences and channels of book distribution play in this? In this wide-ranging collection, the influence of publishers, distributors, librarians and readers come to the foreground to open up new perspectives on literature and print culture. Rooted in original archival research, chapters include studies of the engagement of canonical writers and bestsellers with the literary marketplace; the influence of international and mobile audiences; publishing practices involving genre, promotion, and censorship; and the significance of spaces of reading including bookshops, circulating libraries and on-board passenger ships. Through a series of detailed case-studies that focus on under-explored aspects of distribution and readership, the contributors open up new perspectives on literature and the British book trade. |

history of world societies mckay 8th edition: Major Issues in Islam Harvey J. Sindima, 2017-11-02 This book explores matters that have negatively affected the public image and led to distorted depictions of Islam from the late nineteenth century to the present. The areas of uneasiness and debate among Muslims and non-Muslims alike include Islamic values and identity in the post-caliphate era, after colonialism, and now under Western hegemony. There is anxiety about the place of Shari’a in the light of Western law and the state, secularism, democracy, human rights, the equality of women, and the place of Islamic education in transmitting Islamic values as secular education dominates societies. There are apprehensions over the relation between religion and politics as in the rise of Muslim Brotherhoods, Wahhabism, Islamism, al-Qaeda, and Islamic State. In non-Muslim countries concerns are about the status of Muslim marriage, polygamy, divorce, and interest (in business). Every topic is examined through the Noble Qur’an and the Hadith, classical writings, and linguistic analysis. |

history of world societies mckay 8th edition: Marking the "Invisible" Andrea M. Hawkman, Sarah B. Shear, 2020-04-01 Substantial research has been put forth calling for the field of social studies education to engage in work dealing with the influence of race and racism within education and society (Branch, 2003; Chandler, 2015; Chandler & Hawley, 2017; Husband, 2010; King & Chandler, 2016; Ladson-Billings, 2003; Ooka Pang, Rivera & Gillette, 1998). Previous contributions have examined the presence and influence of race/ism within the field of social studies teaching and research (e.g. Chandler, 2015, Chandler & Hawley, 2017; Ladson-Billings, 2003; Woyshner & Bohan, 2012). In order to challenge the presence of racism within social studies, research must attend to the control that whiteness and white supremacy maintain within the field. This edited volume builds from these previous works to take on whiteness and white supremacy directly in social studies education. In Marking the “Invisible”, editors assemble original contributions from scholars working to expose whiteness and disrupt white supremacy in the field of social studies education. We argue for an articulation of whiteness within the field of social studies education in pursuit of directly challenging its influences on teaching, learning, and research. Across 27 chapters, authors call out the strategies deployed by white supremacy and acknowledge the depths by which it is used to control, manipulate, confine, and define identities, communities, citizenships, and historical narratives. This edited volume promotes the reshaping of social studies education to: support the histories, experiences, and lives of Students and Teachers of Color, challenge settler colonialism and color-evasiveness, develop racial literacy, and promote justice-oriented teaching and learning. Praise for Marking the “Invisible” As the theorization of race and racism continues to gain traction in social studies education, this volume offers a much-needed foundational grounding for the field. From the foreword to the epilogue, Marking the “Invisible” foregrounds conversations of whiteness in notions of supremacy, dominance, and rage. The chapters offer an opportunity for social studies educators to position critical theories of race such as critical race theory, intersectionality, and settler colonialism at the forefront of critical examinations of whiteness. Any social studies educator -researcher concerned with the theorization or teaching of race should engage with this text in their work. Christopher L. Busey, University of Florida |

history of world societies mckay 8th edition: Konstruowanie historii Anna Peck, Stosunek do własnej historii i roli dziejowej często różni się od sposobu jej postrzegania przez innych. Zjawisko kreowania wizji i interpretacji historycznych stanowi nieodłączny element procesu edukacyjnego. Percepcja oraz sposoby prezentacji polskiej historii i kultury w amerykańskich podręcznikach szkolnych i akademickich w zakresie przedmiotów historii powszechnej, historii europejskiej oraz historii cywilizacji zachodniej były w XX i na początku XXI wieku kształtowane pod wpływem zmieniającej się sytuacji społecznej i politycznej oraz dominujących tendencji naukowych. W koncepcjach filozoficznych i intelektualnych, rozwijanych w Europie Zachodniej i Stanach Zjednoczonych od czasów oświecenia do końca okresu zimnej wojny, najczęściej wykluczono narody oraz państwa Europy Środkowej i Wschodniej z kręgu dominującej w świecie cywilizacji zachodniej. W konsekwencji Polska, jej historia i kultura były traktowane marginalnie. Autorka analizuje nie tylko zawartość podręczników, lecz także przyczyny, dla których ciągle jeszcze trudno znaleźć informacje m.in. na temat udziału Polaków w drugiej wojnie światowej, Katynia czy powstania warszawskiego. |
