Rethinking Our Classrooms
I fully agreed with the message in Why Students Should Study History because its important that students learn to think on their own and pursue truth through valid sources not just those that are given to them. Many time when students are given a project per say on the history of the civil war instead of seeking knowledge that they don't currently know, they seek out details to facts that they currently already posses. I truly hope that my students will find and want the truth in life by the importance of it that I teach in history. To many times I find that I have been deceived by the sources that I took for granted. I was taught in high school that NAFTA was loved and accepted by all. Not that there were fierce presidential candidate debates and riots over the issue in mexico. Or that the spread of wealth in Mexico became even more disproportionate 10 years after its initiation. This is all I have to say on this issue.
