So one of my criticism is that it isn't really written for Dutch teachers (which is a dumb point to make, i know). One of the most things I noticed comparing this book to books my fellow countrymen have written, is that we seem to get to the point a lot faster. So while reading this I got fed up many times because of the, at times, lyrical writing. The many examples felt pointless at times.
What I did enjoy is the fact that this book talks about teaching history not from a historian viewpoint. This book could have easily become just another book about something the author know nothing about but still is a bit condescending to teachers because they don't know how to teach history the 'right' way. This book doesn't do that at all. It shows through research how different people look at history and how they dig into it. What students to do in real life and what we hope they would do. At not time I felt the author was talking down to teachers but more like they were sharing their thoughts based on their research.
So while I didn't agree with many things, this book engaged me every time I was studying it. It gave me many good points to take with me into my own research. It even made me think I would want to recreate one of the authors researches to see what the outcome would be in my country. Although that will never happen because what studying this book reinforced to me is: I hate doing research in an academic setting.… (mais)
