"I enjoy working with Thinking Nation to administer DBQ essays in my history class because it allows me to focus on facilitating the lesson and meeting the academic needs of each student. Planning and grading normally take a large chunk of my time so it was nice to be able to share this workload with a trusted organization. The resources that were provided were relevant and useful and I was able to integrate the lesson plan into my own curriculum seamlessly."
Ryan Ritchie Social Studies Teacher
“The contextualization graphic organizer (I'm using the generic one with the guiding questions in it this time since this will be the first time they see it) is wonderful for my visual learners to see exactly how historical events don't happen in a vacuum but are instead influenced by other factors during that time and place. I cannot thank you and your team enough for all the work you've put into these resources for our kids."
Jessica Guerrero AP Teacher
“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...Across the board, the online platform has allowed me to give feedback to all students in a quick and efficient manner.”
Enrico Cosinas Social Studies Teacher
"We [Friendship Public Charter Schools] are thrilled to share our experience working with Thinking Nation as they develop original curriculum aligned with the revised DC Social Studies Standards. Currently crafting curriculum for U.S. History I and World History II, Thinking Nation has demonstrated a strong commitment to meeting the cognitive demands of the new standards."

“It's excellent: the details and texts are, for the most part, well chosen and the questions you ask are good ones.”
