Our newest teaching module for the History for the 21st Century (H/21) project has just been published. It’s titled “Imperial Strategies in the Early Chinese Empires” and was written by Andrew Hardy, an historian of early Chinese history at UC Berkeley. As all our teaching materials, it involves student-centered, inquiry-based, active learning for introductory world history classrooms. It has been peer reviewed, but also tested in world history classrooms and adjusted based on faculty and student feedback!
It’s available to use as an entire 2-week lesson, or to pull apart to use what works for your classroom.
