This self-paced on-line course explores the subject of History in the primary school curriculum as an attempt to reconstruct and interpret the past through working as an historian. They will appreciate that successful teachers of history use a broad range of classroom approaches and methodologies. Participants will engage with aspects of all strands of the prescribed history curriculum to a lesser or greater degree.

The on-line format of the course enables you to study when and where you want to learn. Content is divided into 5 modules which you can complete in any order between July 1st and August 28th 2009.

Participants are encouraged to interact with one another using the communication tools (forum, chat, e-mail) provided by the CPD College learning system. Active facilitation throughout the course provides expert interaction, guidance and feedback for all participants. Assignments and questions which call for critical reflection, self-analysis and a reasoned response punctuate this highly interactive web based course.
