Practising Historical Skills by Using Representative "Facts" Rather than Historical Documents.

Gerrard, Dennis W.

History and Social Science Teacher, v18 n2 p109-12 Dec 1982

A method was designed to provide history students an opportunity to make interpretations and form hypotheses about historical events and eras. The teacher created representative "facts" and questions about a topic and let students use them to make their own hypotheses. A sample unit on European history, 1300-1450, is included. (KC)
