From Corn Chips to Garbology: The Dynamics of Historical Inquiry
Linda Sargent Wood
Cynthia Stout
What can corn chips teach us about history? Quite a bit
as participants learned at a History Education Clearinghouse workshop at the 2011 American Historical Association annual meeting. Upon arriving for the workshop
we found sandwich baggies filled with golden-brown chips on every seat. Historian Laurel Thatcher Ulrich and Harvard Project Zero director Shari Tishman used the chips as artifacts to lead the participants through a See/Think/Wonder exercise. They provided a thinking routine that provokes inquiry about artifacts—even the mundane corn chip—that is useful for learners of all ages (Figure 1). By encouraging detailed observation and turning the ordinary into a voyage of exploration
See/Think/Wonder teases out many historical questions and connections: from corn planters and pickers to ethnobotany and the history of cooking
from African American work songs to Native American creation stories
from agribusiness to manufacturing to ethanol (1).
