Abstract Details

2008, Master of Arts in Education, Defiance College, Education.
Twenty-four ninth grade students enrolled in a rural Midwest high school participated in the study. The purpose of the study was to investigate the use of cultural perspective engagement activities as a teaching strategy for a unit in a World History class in order to determine if students' analytical thinking skills increased when the strategy was implemented. Three cultural perspective engagement activities were implemented daily during a unit on the European Theater of World War II. There were increases in analytical thinking skills as measured by an initial pre-assessment of analytical thinking skills given prior to the implementation of the strategy compared with a post-assessment of analytical thinking skills given after the implementation of the strategy.
