Professional Learning

Since 2007 the Historical Thinking Project has collaborated with various partners to organize Historical Thinking Institutes (HTI) in different cities across Canada. The HTIs have been attended by teachers, graduate students, curriculum developers, professional development leaders, historians, and museum educators who wanted to enhance their understanding of historical thinking and how to apply it in their varied contexts.

For 2022-2023, we are pleased to share two professional learning opportunities:

Virtual Historical Thinking Institute (VHTI)

The Virtual Historical Thinking Institute will offer an introduction to historical thinking and enhance your expertise in designing history programs, courses, units, lessons, projects, or educational resources that explicitly focus on historical thinking.

Available in both French and English.

Historical Thinking Community of Practice (HTCP)

The Historical Thinking Community of Practice is designed for educators who have knowledge and experience working with historical thinking, but want to collaborate with a community of like-minded educators to further explore how to apply historical thinking in their context. 

Available in both French and English.
