“Try it out and don’t be afraid of things going wrong. Feel free to ask students* for help if you need it, and they may be able to show you other exciting tools.”
What can digital tools do in the history classroom that wouldn’t be possible without them?
Katharina Sambeth & Björn Hennig: They offer many advantages that can’t always be covered by analog. For example, they offer the possibility to visualize arguments or temporal connections. In addition, working with digital tools is very motivating, especially today, because it often picks up on aspects of the learners’ lives, for example, when their own comics can be created relatively quickly digitally. In addition, especially in history, the KCs also prescribe working with digital tools as well as dealing with historical images in the media, etc., which then shows up again in the game analysis.
Can you give us a concrete example of your use of digital media in the history classroom?
Katharina Sambeth & Björn Hennig : We like to use the tool “Argumentationswippe” to show that historical judgments are not “right” or “wrong,” but rather subjective opinions that emerge from argumentation. The tool provides a way to demonstrate that students have the same arguments, but evaluate them differently and come to different conclusions.
