year = {2024},
note = {Science fiction literature and film are an underappreciated source for
the teaching of history. Finding material that can excite a
student’s curiosity can be a key towards greater student engagement,
especially among students who are taking history as a requirement,
rather than from interest. The discovery that they can read or watch
science fiction as part of their classwork often comes as a pleasant
surprise. Beyond its popularity, however, utilizing science fiction
for class assignments has certain pedagogical advantages: it
introduces students to new vistas in historical thought, helps them
learn how literature and film can be applied as a primary source, and
can encourage participation in projects that are enjoyable.       Each
chapter provides case studies focusing on a different subject in the
modern history curriculum and in addition to providing an analysis of
specific texts and/or cinematic sources, gives suggestions on
assignments for the students.},
