This forum aims to provide insights and experience on aspects of undertaking and publishing pedagogical research for history colleagues in HE. This will include advice and top tips and examples of projects undertaken. There will be plenty of opportunity for discussion and to ask questions at the end of the forum. We will be joined by Professor Arthur Chapman, Dr Manuela Williams and Professor Gary Mills.

Arthur Chapman is Professor of History Education and IOE, UCL’s Faculty of Education and Society, and has extensive experience of publishing pedagogic research in history education over the last twenty years and, also, of editing such work, as, first, an editor of the Historical Association’s journal for teachers Teaching History, and, second, as the editor of various peer-reviewed research journals and publications, including, currently, the History Education Research Journal and the International Review of History Education.

Manuela Williams is Principal Teaching Fellow in History at the University of Strathclyde. She has developed a strand of pedagogical scholarship activities that have focussed on widening access in higher education looking at the experience of transition through and out of university, graduate employability and inclusive pedagogy (curriculum and assessment design). She is a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and has been an active contributor to various History UK projects.

Gary Mills is Professor of History Education at the University of Nottingham, where for many years he led the History PGCE course. His research interests are centred on the teaching of the Holocaust and other genocides including the use of photographs and the use of testimony in classrooms and museum settings. He has collaborated on a number of funded projects and published on these themes.
