Session Abstract
This panel introduces the #AHRSyllabus Project, a new initiative in the American Historical Review that brings teaching into the pages of the journal for the first time. This collaborative and collective syllabus is designed to help teachers and students look "under the hood" at how historians in the early twenty-first century do the work of history. Each issue of the AHR will feature one or two teaching modules that foreground innovative uses of historical method in the classroom. The panel offers a preview of forthcoming #AHRSyllabus modules, including teaching with material culture; historical gaming in the classroom; making crowd-sourced collective biographies informed by feminist pedagogies and digital mapping; and innovative approaches to teaching historiography. Designed as a hands-on session we will also engage the audience on the issues and topics they would like to see developed in future #AHRSyllabus modules.
