The History of Europe and The Wider World can prove to be a challenging topic for students who are being introduced to complex concepts and political ideologies for the first time. In this webinar, Claire will provide teachers with methodologies, resources and tips on how best to communicate a content-heavy topic to students while simultaneously engaging their interest. Focus will be given to the Junior Cycle exam and preparing students for the types of questions which may appear on the paper.
