New History Department Partnership with the California History Social Science Project Publishes K12 Curricular Materials in Middle East History

A yearlong partnership between the Department of History and the California History-Social Science Project (CHSSP) has resulted in the publication of four new inquiry sets on Middle Eastern and Arab American history! The lesson plans are available for classroom use this Fall. History graduate students Ali Daniş Neyzi, Charles Sills, and Nina Gonzelez curated and produced the sets with CHSSP Deputy Director Beth Slutsky and History faculty PIs Stacy D. Fahrenthold, Baki Tezcan, and Ali Anooshahr. Based on a yearlong project funded by the UC Office of the President, the sets introduce inquiry-based instruction in rarely taught sources to California high schools.
