Vol. 21 No. 2: Summer 2024

Vol. 21, no. 2 (Summer 2024) centers on the Forum, “Tools of the Trade: Methods and Sources for Teaching World History,” offering concrete models for making world-history instruction more archival, digital, experiential, and student-centered. Articles range across a Royal African Company soldier’s life, Greek warfare, Emma Willard’s visual chronology, Holocaust digital resources, simulations of Islamic trade, classroom games, and reflective learning. Together, this forum demonstrates how varied sources and activities can cultivate historical thinking and empathy. A companion article, “Conceptualizing World History,” broadens the issue’s methodological concerns by considering the field’s analytical foundations.
