dc.description.abstractHistorical monuments currently occupy a controversial place in countries across the world. However, despite the important role of social studies educators in this debate, at this time there is a limited number of studies that explore the teaching methods these educators use in their classrooms to make sense of and engage with controversies surrounding memorialization. To address these gaps, this project sought insights into the following research questions: 1) How (if at all) do social studies teachers in Alberta address contentious debates around the memorialization of controversial historical figures in their classrooms? 2) To what extent have they experienced emotional reactions when engaging these topics with their students, and how have they addressed this in their practice?en_US
