Continuous Professional Development (CPD) Resources

Do you want some simple ideas of ways to use primary sources to enrich your students’ learning experience and bring history to life? Then look no further.

Simply click on the thumbnail images below to get some practical ideas as to how you can use historical objects, images and documents in your teaching.

These ideas have been used successfully by Newcastle University Library’s Education Outreach Team during the course of our work. Many of the ideas and strategies suggested have been picked up from elsewhere and we do not by any means claim that these ideas originated with us. When it has been possible to trace the origin of the original idea, we have provided appropriate weblinks. If you believe you have a claim to the intellectual property rights of anything featured in this course, and wish to be credited, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
