  1. I’m pleased to share a new article published with Edutopia on reducing end-of-year disengagement in social studies classrooms.

    edutopia.org/article/engaging-

    The article explores a four-week AP World History thematic investigation project built around:
    • inquiry
    • source analysis
    • thesis development
    • scaffolded checkpoints
    • student ownership

    The goal is to move students from passive review toward genuine historical thinking.

  3. Vildt nok. Det hvide hus bringer hm... " alternative fakta" på ny officiel hjemmeside. :

    "Donald Trump har gentagne gange påstået, at valgsvindel var skyld i hans nederlag til Joe Biden i 2020. Det er til gengæld uset, at Det Hvide Hus fremsætter påstanden på en officiel regeringshjemmeside. Det gør de nu.."

  4. Watching Trump’s Venezuela adventurism, I keep thinking about how often U.S. power gets sold as “necessary” and “for their own good,” right up until the bill comes due.
    I turned that into a teacher-friendly lesson using Library of Congress political cartoons. It stays usable in class while still asking hard questions. peterpappas.com/2026/01/the-co #HistoryTeacher #HISTED #SSchat #History #HistoryMatters #Cartoon #politics #Trump #comics

  5. Turn your students into historical detectives. I just posted a way to use AI to create custom mystery activities where every student holds a clue and the whole class has to argue their way to an explanation. peterpappas.com/2025/12/design #HistoryTeacher #EdTech #TeachingWithAI #HISTED #SSchat

  8. Robert South was an Anglican writer and preacher. Here he talks about keeping the peace. He says that one who is oppressing widows, and is grinding the face of the poor, is no less a disturber of the peace than someone who forages the country with an army.

    Some today may be more upset that talking about the poor is merely disturbing the peace.

    How can you keep the peace?

  9. Let your students create timelines in OneNote

    How do you help your students to get an overview of 'history' and various history topics?

  10. Since it is Black History Month, I thought I would share this blog post I wrote about Jane Matilda Bolin--the first Black woman to serve as a judge in the United States. Her story is pretty inspiring. And, New York City should rename the Queens-Midtown Tunnel to honor her! #NamingGotham #history #historymatters #blackhistorymonth #blacklawyers #NewYorkCity #NYC #histodon #awardwinning #book @histodons #historybuff #historyteacher historyinthemargins.com/2023/0

  11. Exactly one year ago today, I unboxed the first copies of Naming Gotham. I got to spend a year sharing on podcasts, giving public lectures, & doing news interviews with PBS, Daily News, Hellgate (+ so many more). What an adventure! Thank you all for the support.

    P.S. Books make great presents! #naminggotham #history #nyc #newyork #NewYorkCity #historybuff #historyteacher @histodons #histodon

  12. One of the best things about Naming Gotham has been the opportunities it created for me to reconnect with old friends and former students. #NamingGotham #NYC #History #historylover #newyork #newyorkcity #books #historyteacher @histodons

  13. Dropped into D Listers of History (one of my favorite podcasts) to spill some NYC history/gossip. Give it a listen and then consider picking up a copy of Naming Gotham. #NamingGotham #History #NYC #NewYork #newyorker #newyorkcity #awardwinning #books #historyfacts #historybuff #historyteacher @histodons #books open.spotify.com/episode/4y4HH

  14. Austin Street in Forest Hills is named for raging anti-Semite Austin Corbin, the crooked railroad investor who, along with his partner-in-crime Arthur Benson, swindled the Montauketts & took their land. The Montauketts have been trying to get justice for a century. Recent article about their latest attempt in comments. Its past time to right this wrong (& to rename the street!) #NamingGotham #history #newyork #nyc #newyorkcity #awardwinning #book #bookworm #historyteacher #longisland @histodons

  15. Excited to see that Naming Gotham is a #1 Best Seller on Amazon this weekend. A little #history #gossip can be a welcome respite from the news. #NYC #NewYork #NewYorker #Historian #awardwinning #Book #histodons #historyteacher #historylover #NamingGotham

  16. This is the first time I combined Naming Gotham, environmental justice, and sailing the Pacific on the Endeavour in a single podcast episode. #Endeavour #nyc #NamingGotham #NewYork #woodenship #adventure #history #historyteacher #historylover #woodenworld @histodons Listening to "Slow Boat to New Zealand?

  17. Fun Fact: Writing #NamingGotham reconnected me with old friends! Just got this email from a college buddy (go Wes!):
    "Just now I was reading your chapter on Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney and thought that her Titanic sculpture looked familiar. I was in DC a month ago when I snapped this photo."
