John F. Kennedy Workbook

Subject: History
Level: Secondary
Age Group: 11 - 14
Order Number: 7110

This workbook was developed to help students follow 'A world study after 1900' as specified for pupils aged 11-14. The source material is lively and well structured, and allows the student to work at his or her own pace. The workbook will help your students to:

• Develop study skills.
• Help prepare them for further historical investigations within the curriculum.
• Provide them with the material and resources for political discussions.
• Help to develop an understanding of the historical evidence and the relative significance surrounding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy

Primary and secondary sources are included as well as:

• Relevant investigations.
• Photographs.
• Links to relevant Internet sites.

Most importantly, the resource aids discussion, thought, and stimulates the student into asking relevant and pertinent questions about the investigations. Pupils are also encouraged to use the internet to aid their search for further resources, which will be of major benefit to their investigative skills. The given evidence allows the tutor to assess a variety of student skills, which do not necessarily lead to one particular outcome. However, they can provoke deep discussions between students and will help them enhance their own analytical and investigative historical skills.
