“…We hope also that a useful statistical evaluation of the e¤ects of our historical projects will emerge from the nature and scope of this endeavor. Details of our 20-30 student projects based on primary sources, some completed, tested, and published, some yet to be written, are available in a resource book [1] and at our web sites [2,3]. Below I will use one of these projects to illustrate how I believe primary sources can be central to the curriculum.…”

“…The expansion will support classroom testing by faculty at twenty other institutions, careful evaluation of their e¤ectiveness, and provide training in teaching with these projects to graduate students. Projects created to date under the expansion grant are available at our new web resource (Barnett et al 2008), along with descriptions of projects yet to be developed. We welcome instructors who would like to collaborate in testing or writing projects.…”
