Duration: 7 minutes, 2 seconds
Why are some events in the curriculum and not others? Carla Peck explains that the criteria for determining historical significance depend on perspective and purpose, and may vary over time. She describes how teachers can engage students by inviting them to reflect on those factors at work. (presentation at the 2007 Alberta Education Social Studies Summer Institute)
