Educator Testimonials 

The Thinking Nation DBQ was instrumental in my teaching practice last semester, and during the last school year. Using the [platform] provided primary source documents, I was able to help my students use historical thinking skills to decipher challenging materials and make connections to our world history class.

Thinking Nation's online platform created a streamlined process for me to teach and students to practice historical thinking skills. The ability to annotate and interact with the material made it very engaging for students. The online platform also made it far more feasible to check student's understanding during the writing process.

IDEA Public Schools has been working with Thinking Nation over the past 3 years. During this time, Thinking Nation has developed quality writing products to help with the implementation of IDEAs disciplinary literacy goals. The quality of the products and alignment to best practices coupled with the technology that they offer with their AI program has been invaluable to teachers and school leaders as they partner to make instructional decisions, because they can trust the quality of the product that they are using, and it eliminates the potential misalignment of feedback.

Student Testimonials 

“While writing the CRP and going over the expectation of the essay, everything was pretty straightforward to understand. There were some points during the analysis of the documents that were confusing due to the structure of the main question. Although, this was a stumbling block it helped me focus on the citation of the documents and made my elaborations stronger. Having the outside information as well as the documents all in one packet really helped me easily connect what was happening in the world today back to my essay. Not only did it challenge the way you structured your argument but it challenged your mindset and made you think outside the box. Overall, the DBQ was an essay well structured because it constantly made you think about your goal for your writing and what you wanted to prove.”
