Abstract
This essay explores transnational history education through the China–Korea–Japan CAMPUS Asia ENGAGE Program. Utilising active learning, project-based activities and joint history textbook creation, students navigate East Asia’s contested past. The approach encourages a shift from national to transnational identities, fostering a ‘global citizen’ perspective. By deconstructing conventional history narratives and constructing alternative, intersectional viewpoints, students develop a nuanced understanding that transcends divisive national boundaries. This pedagogical strategy underscores the potential of active learning in advocating global history perspectives for conflict resolution and reshaping historical memory.
期刊介绍:
Memory Studies is an international peer reviewed journal. Memory Studies affords recognition, form, and direction to work in this nascent field, and provides a critical forum for dialogue and debate on the theoretical, empirical, and methodological issues central to a collaborative understanding of memory today. Memory Studies examines the social, cultural, cognitive, political and technological shifts affecting how, what and why individuals, groups and societies remember, and forget. The journal responds to and seeks to shape public and academic discourse on the nature, manipulation, and contestation of memory in the contemporary era.
