The Internationalization of History Teaching through the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning: Creating institutions to unite the efforts of a discipline

Over the past decade historians and educational researchers in the UK, Australia, the USA and Canada have been devoting ever increasing energy to the systematic exploration of the learning of history at the college level. Now members of the discipline have come together to nurture and to disseminate this new scholarship of teaching and learning history. They have created an international society, a website, and an electronic newsletter that should be of interest to those in other disciplines who are concerned with bringing some of the rigor they honor in traditional research to the problems they face in the classroom.
