The Digital Inquiry Group—known as DIG for short—
is an independent nonprofit organization. Founded
by Sam Wineburg in 2002 at Stanford University
as the Stanford History Education Group (SHEG),
our history education and civic online reasoning
curriculum has over 14 million downloads and is
used in all 50 states and around the globe.

Today, our work is focused on reaching people of all ages
and preparing them to make sense of the past and
navigate our digital present. We believe that these skills
are critical to strengthen our democracy and empower
individuals to make informed decisions for themselves
and their communities.
