Teaching Canada's History: Interdisciplinary Connections
This special podcast series features some of the finalists for the 2025 Governor General’s History Award for Excellence in Teaching. This award recognizes teachers from across the country for their exceptional work in teaching Canadian history. It is also an opportunity to promote and facilitate the sharing of best practices and innovative teaching ideas within Canada’s history education community.
Listen in alongside host Brooke Campbell to learn more about how teachers and students are working together to interpret the past, connect it to the present, and share stories that matter.

This episode features Stephanie Gibson, Michele Cumberland, Rodney Squires, Hillary Weppler, and Jennifer Morris — teachers who are all using interdisciplinary approaches to help their students engage critically and creatively with history.
They talk about combining history with technology, philosophy and the arts, and explore what it looks like when students are encouraged to ask rich questions, connect with their own communities, and share their learning.
