Fred Spier How Big History is currently taught
In this 30 minutes presentation, a number of course models will be presented, all with their advantages and disadvantages, that are currently being developed for teaching big history. These range from teaching big history by one single teacher to the development of a website which will facilitate for free the teaching of big history at high schools worldwide. Special attention will be paid to institutional politics.
