Critical Thinking Assignment

A database of over 600 searchable primary sources that can be assigned and assessed? Welcome to Critical Thinking Assignment for History.  

McGraw Hill’s Critical Thinking Assignment for History supports students’ critical thinking skills by scaffolding necessary skills for critical reading and analysis. Students demonstrate understanding by written responses or by highlighting and annotating directly within the reading.

Interactive Maps

Interactive Maps are tied to assessment and encourage students’ geographical and historical thinking by demonstrating events like changing boundaries and migration routes, war battles and election results. Students can manipulate and consider data to help them better understand change over time.

Maps in Context

Maps in Context give students a hands-on understanding of how geography can shape history. These maps help students explore and contextualize history by providing a narrative overview to place map information in context as well as advanced navigation features to manipulate key geographic details.
