Just picked up a graphic novel about an historian national hero in the equivalent of Smiths in Paris Est. Imagine a world where that could happen in an English railway station… @apf102.bsky.social

Hi #historyteacher people. I am hurtling towards PhD research deadlines and looking for any TEACHERS and PUPILS who might help out by completing a survey about GCSE American West. Aim is to explore pupil metanarratives about Indigenous peoples and US expansion. Thread has more on the surveys.

We have nearly sold out our SHP Understanding event on Teaching History through an Emotional Lens, at the British Library on Saturday October 10th! But there are still some tickets left from www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/shp-unders... come and join us for a really inspiring afternoon.

Thank you @freereed59.net!

@arthurjchapman.bsky.socialSep 15, 2026, 12:59 PM

Thanks @freereed59.net!

@arthurjchapman.bsky.socialSep 15, 2026, 9:29 AM

Rather than empathetic aspects of multiperspectivity (what I call 'decentering') I focus on 'decision' in history-making - in homage to @marnieh-w.bsky.social's work on historiographies. Histories become about decisions & visions, and reflection on them, I hope, them enables questioning & revision.

@arthurjchapman.bsky.socialSep 15, 2026, 9:24 AM

I've made use of a powerful question asked once by @uclhistory.bsky.social colleague Dr David Sim in the article ('What do we see and what do we miss when we focus on...?'). Hope that's useful to history educators - @freereed59.net @danlyndon.bsky.social @apf102.bsky.social @nickdennis.bsky.social

@arthurjchapman.bsky.socialSep 15, 2026, 9:22 AM

Thanks to @polypartist.bsky.social for permission to reproduce the powerful Peterloo book front cover designs in the article and to @jenturnerhistory.bsky.social and others with whom I've collaborated on historical interpretation over the years for the inspiration! 2/4

@arthurjchapman.bsky.socialSep 15, 2026, 9:20 AM

Delighted 2 say that the article I mentioned has been published by @coe.int today. It's about multiperspectivity &agency in historical interpretations. Will be of interest 2 @royalhistsoc.org @histassoc.bsky.social @htenuk.bsky.social @1972shp.bsky.social and others. www.coe.int/en/web/obser... 1/4

Oh wow! I would think @danlyndon.bsky.social may have some ideas. This looks amazing.

See this thread for ideas about learning opportunities once you have these! (Starts as Bayeux Tapestry thread then links to work by @jenturnerhistory.bsky.social and @arthurjchapman.bsky.social )

A real triumph @1972shp.bsky.social this summer, Dan, I agree! Like you, I'll still thinking through the very powerful ideas that the conference shared (I'm blown away by @profdanhicks.bsky.social book, not least!). Thank you for curating this powerful learning experience for us all so expertly!

@arthurjchapman.bsky.socialSep 6, 2026, 6:14 PM

Indeed! Amazing how many forks in the round there can be! If this then… then… then…

@arthurjchapman.bsky.socialSep 6, 2026, 1:26 PM

Thanks Ali! Always good to be reminded... Nice to think of the Tapestry as a kind of graphic novel. It's certainly not far from being a story board / (hi)story board. These issues all apply I reckon (from the materials developed with @jenturnerhistory.bsky.social)....

@arthurjchapman.bsky.socialSep 6, 2026, 1:24 PM

Honoured and delighted to say that I expect to have something available online and open access from @coe.int soon on teaching related matters that draws on some of this material and linked ideas. I'll keep quiet about when till we have the big reveal / drum rolll soon (watch this space!). 4/4
