This special issue of the London Review of Education will explore the multiple sources of young people’s historical knowledge – in collective memory and social conversation as well as in the formal history classroom – and the implications for historical education of the fact that young people are not passive assimilators but active builders of historical sense.

Please send abstracts, outlines and expressions of interest by 31 January 2016 to Dr Arthur Chapman (a.chapman@ioe.ac.uk). The deadline for submission of manuscripts is 30 June 2016.

Please see the London Review of Education site for the full call: https://ioepress.co.uk/journals/london-review-of-education/
