TURNING POINTS IN AMERICAN SPORTS



http://www.gilderlehrman.org/historynow/03_2010/index.phpMarch 2010: Turning Points in American Sports
The Institute is pleased to present the latest issue of History Now, a quarterly online journal for history teachers and students, available at www.gilderlehrman.org/historynow.
In this issue, History Now examines a topic near and dear the hearts of students: sports. As fans, athletes, or teachers, we know that sports provide us with valuable lessons in team work, self discipline, and the ability to accept both victory and defeat with good grace. But how many of us realize the value of sports history in our classrooms? Our contributors, including New York Times columnist Gail Collins, examine important turning points in American sports, illustrated by video clips from NBC Learn.
