Abstract

This study explores how digital innovation incubators enhance historical thinking skills by synthesizing findings from multiple empirical studies. Through a mixed-methods synthesis approach, the research integrates primary data from classroom-based digital interventions, quantitative metrics assessing students' historical reasoning, and qualitative insights from participant interviews and instructional observations. The analysis reveals that digital incubators such as interactive archives, historical simulation platforms, and collaborative digital storytelling tool significantly contribute to students' abilities to analyze sources, construct evidencebased narratives, and understand chronology and causation. The study underscores the potential of technology-enhanced environments to support critical, reflective engagement with the past in formal education settings.
