Historical thinking and other unnatural acts: charting the future of teaching the past

·2002·Choice Reviews Online

Abstract

Desde la antiguedad, los expertos han lamentado la falta de conocimiento historico de los jovenes y advirtieron que el desconocimiento del pasado condena a la humanidad a repetir sus errores. En los Estados Unidos contemporaneos, esta terrible perspectiva impulsa un polemico debate sobre que eventos, naciones y personas clave son esenciales para los estudiantes de historia. Sam Wineburg dice que estamos haciendo las preguntas equivocadas. Este libro destruye la nocion convencional de que hay una historia verdadera y una mejor manera de ensenarla.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
