Episode 47: Reacting to the Past

The Way of Improvement Leads Home: American History, Religion, Politics, and Academic life. - A podcast by John Fea

Here on the podcast, we love pedagogy. We've dedicated a number of episodes to the ways different historians and instructors are innovating in the classroom. Today we're turning our attention to one such approach: Reacting to the Past. These large-scale role-playing games allow students to fully appreciate the context and contingency of history by simulating historical events. We are joined by Nicolas Proctor, one of the architects of the Reacting to the Past (@ReactingTTPast) methodology, Sponsored by the Lyndhurst Group (lyndhurstgroup.org) and Jennings College Consulting (drj4college.com).
