Consequently, more teachers are using various forms of popular culture as pedagogical tools in the history classroom. Science fiction is one of the most popular genres of contemporary film, a genre that permeates much of the current culture.

In addition to covering key themes and concepts, the volume provides • an era-by-era overview of significant issues and related films, • a tutorial in using film in historical methodology, • user guides for 10 key science fiction films, and • sample exercises and assignments for direct classroom use. Among the films covered in this book are staples of American cultural literacy, including “Things to Come”, “The Day the Earth Stood Still”, “Soylent Green”, and “Independence Day”. Covering conceptual topics such as geopolitics, environmental consciousness, imperialism, immigration, gender roles, and technological innovation across the decades, “Teaching History with Science Fiction Films” will enable classroom teachers to effectively use movies to examine key social and cultural issues, concepts, and influences in their historical context.
