In this episode, we are joined by Leslie Hayes, Vice-President of Education at the New York Historical Society.
Hayes discusses how even the simplest item - a Dunkin Doughnuts Coffee Cup for example - can unleash deep and engaging student conversation on what everyday items tell us about the cultures we currently live in as well as about past times.
Hayes also tells us about the work of her department at the museum in training educators and teaching students and also walks listeners through the steps that educators should take students through when conducting object based inquiry.
She also discusses tips on how teachers can start collecting/using their own artifacts when teaching Social Studies. Hint: This does not need to be expensive or complicated.
