In this episode, Michael and I discuss historical knowledge skills. Michael is the creator of the historyskills.com website which contains excellent lessons for the history classroom. History knowledge skills include chronology, change and continuity, causes and consequences, significance, and motives and historical empathy. It's vital for history students to understand these very important knowledge skills, which are often central to assessments. Be sure to listen to the other two episodes on source criticism and research as well. Follow History Skills on twitter @HistorySkills. You are welcome to send suggestions and questions to @WilliamHPalk or @C_duPlessis.
