An episode on the historian's craft! Professor Karen Harris joins us on the podcast to tell us more about an initiative she started at the University of Pretoria to expose history students to archival material. We discuss how the teaching of history has changed over the years. Prof Harris points to the importance of the subject of history, but also the instrumental role of the history teacher. What is "doing" history really about? How is it different from just "learning" history? Prof Harris invites us to go beyond Von Ranke's straightjacket and really read against the grain. "What's in the Box" is a brilliant initiative that all history teachers should consider using in their teaching strategies.
