About the World School History Project

Discover and compare narratives in school history curricula and textbooks around the world

The World School History Project collates and annotates history curricula and learning materials from around the world to identify different perspectives and narratives. By highlighting discrepancies and tracing their roots, we hope to foster better understanding between opposing viewpoints.

Queryable knowledge base from learning materials and curricula around the world

Leveraging cutting-edge AI-powered annotation, information extraction, translation, and summarization technologies—coupled with human validation, we are building an easily queryable knowledge base grounded in human understanding. To learn more about our methods, visit our tech blog.

Explore the Knowledge Base

Digital tools and learning resources

The knowledge base allows us to develop interactive digital tools (e.g. interactive maps, question-answer systems, quiz generators) and non-digital learning resources (e.g. worksheets exploring comparisons of historical narratives, side-by-side summaries of historical narratives across countries, regions, time periods).

Research on global History education

Our research investigates the differences in history teaching and curriculum content worldwide. Through surveys and interviews with citizens and educators, we aim to understand how history is taught in diverse contexts.
