Learn how to interpret political cartoons from the era of the Second World War. Find out the historical context, subtle meaning, and impact of these cartoons during the time they were produced. Students will be presented with a different political cartoon each from the U.S., Great Britain and others countries. Then layer-by-layer the students, guided by the teacher will investigate the historical context from which it was made. Students will also learn how to evaluate political cartoons as historical sources in terms of bias, reliability and usefulness to the historian. Historical source analysis is a key skill every student should understand in preparation for later historical studies and citizenship. Week of 1 May - League of Nations Week of 8 May - Mussolini Week of 15 May - Appeasement Week of 22 May - Sudetenland Crisis Week of 29 May - German-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact Other topics will follow using a variety of cartoons Students can drop in anytime since each week each cartoon analyzed will be introduced with the specific skill set necessary to fully understand the context, meaning, and intent of the cartoon. Thus no specific prior knowledge from previous classes are necessary.

As a teacher of honor level historical studies (GCSE/AP/IB/A-Level) for the past thirty years I have used historical cartoons extensively in my instruction. Many examination boards (OCR/AQU/Edexcel) use political cartoons on their examinations and students are expected to understand these as historical sources which demonstrate a general view about an incident or an event. This is a key historical studies skill which I have always enjoyed teaching.
