Another key theme in Making History is the importance of encouraging student creativity and imagination. Culpin argues that history should not be seen as a dry and dusty subject, but rather as a dynamic and creative field of study. He suggests that teachers can encourage students to think creatively about historical events by using activities such as historical fiction, drama, and role-playing. By engaging with history in a more creative and imaginative way, students can develop a deeper understanding of the subject and appreciate its relevance to the present day.
