Samuel S. Wineburg (born 1958) is an American educational and cognitive psychologist. He is the Margaret Jacks Professor of Education and, by courtesy, of History & American Studies emeritus at Stanford University. Since the 1990s, Wineburg's research has been influential in research on historical thinking and the teaching and learning of history.[1][2][3]
Sam Wineburg was born in 1958. He was raised in Utica, New York in a Reform Jewish family.[4] Wineburg attended Brown University, where he studied under Jacob Neusner. Neusner told Wineburg "you will have to leave Brown to become Jewishly educated," prompting Wineburg to spend a year and a half in Israel studying Hebrew and living on kibbutzes.[4] Upon his return to the United States, Wineburg transfered to to the University of California, Berkeley, where he graduated with a degree in the history of religion.[4] Wineburg earned his Ph.D. in Psychological Studies in Education at Stanford University, where Lee Shulman served as his advisor.[5][when?]
Wineburg is the founder and director of the Stanford History Education Group at Stanford.[6] Since 2015 he has been a member of the National Academy of Education.[7]
