Abstract
This study explores an inquiry-based approach to teaching and learning with historical photographs in an international context. It also features educative curriculum materials: exemplary Monday-morning-ready resources that strongly illustrate wise-practice strategies for teaching students. These resources are scaffolded to help teachers and teacher-educators develop their professional craft and contain a teacher-friendly— but not teacher-proof—narrative. Within the narrative are several “yellow sticky note” type supplements that support teacher learning (see https://craftingcurriculum.org for research studies and curriculum exemplars). This paper shares iterative, design-based research to better understand the potential of digital educative curriculum materials to support the development of civic competence. The author posits: Can digital educative curriculum materials featuring historical photographs in a wise-practice social studies approach help teachers (and students) develop civic competence for international and global education?
