Gale provides insights and useful resources for education research, methods, and issue analysis across a variety of topics, including formal learning options available in the United States to students of all ages—beginning with preschool and progressing through primary school, secondary school, and institutions of higher education, to professional development, educational methods and issues, and more.

Health and Medicine

Dive into the field of health and medicine, a subject that encompasses the study of the prevention, cure, and understanding of disease as well as the investigation of physical and mental well-being. This topic includes health care, medicine, human anatomy, and patient’s access to care. To improve a patient’s health, medical professionals use therapy, medications, and diets. 

History

Learn more about the subject of history, which is broadly defined as the study of past events. Due to the broad nature of the concept, most historians narrow their scope by focusing on a particular time period, a particular country or region, a particular person, group, or individual person, a particular theme, or any combination of those categories.

Humanities and Social Sciences

Research the broad topic of the humanities and social sciences, which is a discipline that involves the study of human society and social relationships. Within this discipline, however, the humanities and the social sciences are distinct in their methodology and focus.

Interests and Hobbies

Have fun with the topic of interests and hobbies, which are activities that are engaged in primarily for pleasure as opposed to employment. While some interests and hobbies retain an economic component, any profits made from these activities are secondary to the enjoyment experienced in the activity itself.

Legal Studies

Gain a better understanding of the field of law and legal studies, which includes both the rules and regulations that govern society (the law) as well as the study of how law shapes and is shaped by political, economic, and cultural forces (legal studies). 

Literature

Read up on the topic of literature, which is any written work, including novels, short stories, plays, poetry, biographies and autobiographies, works of history, essays, and literature criticism. 

Science and Technology

Analyze the field of science and technology, which is the study of the physical and natural world through observation and experimentation (science) as well as the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes (technology).
