Welcome to H-TEACH, a network for intellectual exchange on history teaching methods at all levels--high school, university, and graduate--in diverse settings. Special attention is paid to use of new technologies in and outside of the classroom, as well as specific teaching tools including texts, videos, exams, and assignments.

Dear friends,
This year we are celebrating twenty-five years of service by scholars, teachers, and students for scholars, teachers, and students to the humanities and social sciences. We own our servers and our members own their contributions. H-Net is a free, independent, nonprofit service creating valuable resources for researchers and educators, stored in a public, permanent archive while safeguarding the privacy of our subscribers. No algorithms, no data selling, no spam, no shouting.
I would like to renew our network's call for book reviewers. At this time we would benefit especially from volunteers with research and teaching specialization in non-western history, but all others are welcome as well. As a community of teacher-scholars, H-Teach is uniquely positioned to offer book reviews of interest beyond specialized research, for the daily work of preparing lessons and lectures, creating assignments, and overseeing student research projects.
