ACT
This is from an American history course designed for teachers to enrich their knowledge and their teaching practice. This interactive is a set of nine exercises where teachers evaluate primary resources related to a specific event in American history and think about the different perspectives shown. They then fill in a Venn diagram to match the different perspectives to the primary sources that best represent them. From this, they construct a 'balanced' view of the event and explain their thinking, then look at sets developed by fellow teachers.
