Teaching Naval History and Seapower today:
The Forum on Integrated Naval History and Seapower Studies (FINHSS, “fins”) at the U.S. Naval Academy hosted a one-day conference and workshop on the teaching of naval history and seapower. With the support of the McMullen Sea Power Fund and the Naval Academy Foundation, this event aimed to enhance the pedagogy, content, and approaches to how we teach the naval past at the Naval Academy and across American higher education. FINHSS welcomed those teaching at service academies, research universities, liberal arts colleges, and anyone in between who eaches or is interested in teaching naval and maritime history.
Videos of the Sessions are provided below for the continuing discussion of how and why we teach naval history.
