Ideas for Teaching History and Systems

This article presents some ideas and activities (reaction journal, intellectual genealogy, textbook comparisons, and multiple timelines) for the history and systems class. Instead of formal testing, students prepared topic summaries that integrated their knowledge from lectures, text, and original articles. These activities can be used to increase the richness of students' experience.
