The work of Emma Willard was carried on in the 19th century, but is important to social studies today for many reasons. Willard held an integrated view of social science education and her textbooks, which were highly successful, reflect that. Emma Willard was one of the first women in the field of teacher education and she trained many young women in the Troy Female Seminary. Willard's interests were in geographic education, and citizenship education, as well as history, views more typical of the 1960s than of the 1860s
