The American Historical Association just recognized Professors Tim Keirn and Eileen Luhr for their work in training highly-qualified teachers by awarding them the Gilbert Prize for the best essay in history pedagogy published this year.  As the award announcement noted, “’Keirn and Luhr not only report on the diminishing role of history departments in preparing students to teach history in the secondary school system, but also show that new teachers who have combined rigorous undergraduate training in history with traditional pedagogic training in history education do better in the high school classroom,’” noted Paul G.E. Clemens, the 2013 Asher Prize committee chair and professor of history at Rutgers University-New Brunswick. Read the award-winning essay here.
