A course (or courses) in History, which constitute a minor component of a degree in another subject should enable the student (to the extent possible in the time available) to develop a historical perspective on reality. This should include acquiring or experiencing:1. A critical view of the human past, and the realization that the past affects our present and future and our perception of them.2. Understanding of and respect for viewpoints moulded by different historical backgrounds.3. A general idea of the diachronic framework of major historical periods or events.4. Direct contact with the historians’ craft, that is, even in a circumscribed context, contact withoriginal sources and texts produced by professional historiographical research.
The modules can be organised over a longer or shorter period of time. They can require different amounts of student work time according to the results desired and the time constraints. They can be delivered completely on-line, completely in the class-room or using a mixed approach. They can be given in general form or in country specific form.
