Abstract

Teaching the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and citizens is the one of the primary roles for Social Studies teachers. This can be especially true for those instructors who teach United States history since this class focuses on the past and future of our country. To help in this teaching endeavor, this study has created a Taxonomy of Social Studies Evidence Based Practices. A systematic and exhaustive review of the literature was completed finding 17 articles in which the taxonomy was created. Within this taxonomy, arms related to (1) effective technology use, (2) place-base-learning, (3) primary documentation sourcing, and (4) culturally relevant teaching practice will be emphasized. This poster will discuss this taxonomy in depth and how Social Studies teachers can improve their teaching using these important Evidence Based Practices.
