520 $a This study identified and analyzed the writings of Herbert Baxter Adams on historical methodology and pedagogy. It showed how his views shaped the formation of the pedagogical trends in the study and teaching of history in the secondary schools and universities of the United States. The Adams papers located in the Milton S. Eisenhower Memorial Library on the campus of Johns Hopkins University were utilized in this research.
520 $a The following research questions guided this study: How was history defined and how was it taught prior to Herbert B. Adams? What were Adams' ideas about the definition and teaching of history? What contributions did Adams make to the discipline of history as a member of the American Historical Association? How did Adams seek to promote his ideas about the teaching of history at the university and professional levels while a member of the faculty of Johns Hopkins University? What were Adams' views on the teaching of secondary school history?
520 $a The findings of this study revealed that Adams contributed greatly to the inquiry method of teaching history in the United States. He believed that history had a vital role to play in citizenship education through the implementation of the historical method involving the utilization of critical thinking skills on the part of the students.
520 $a The aim of education, according to Adams, was not indoctrination, it was discovery, and discovery was the product of inquiry. The findings of this research supported the thesis that arousing and stimulating students' intellectual curiosity into active and comprehensive investigation and developing skills in gathering, analyzing, and evaluating historical evidence was a primary aim of history education. Adams articulated that the open and inquiring mind, and vigorous and disciplined investigation were the characteristics of free men and a democratic society.
