The particular strengths
of history-ontheweb and new perspective articles
The history-ontheweb site addresses these
issues. The provenance of content, mostly written by university specialists, is
evident from the academic position of the authors and specified at the start of
articles as well as by the biographical details, including the author’s publications, at
their end. The pitch has been tuned for use at the advanced level and help added
with the ‘words and concepts to note’ feature.
Further, the articles’ utility, supported by topic
guides, concept definitions and study advice, is enhanced by a careful
structure that incorporates a summary, questions to consider, subheadings,
further reading and, sometimes, links to related articles on the site. In short,
each article is a double lesson work assignment. Lastly, the
focus
of content, because the articles were commissioned by a
specification-aware editor, is securely on the provision of resources to meet the needs of
GCSE and A-Level teachers, higher-grade GCSE students and all those who study at
AS and A-Level.
You
may wish to quickly read two short articles about post 2000 study practice
and textbook publishing trends that pinpoint the value of articles by
research-based university historians on this site.
Looking ‘outside
the box’. The benefits to students of considering ‘a bigger picture’
Text

supplemented
