Watch the video: "What Makes History Usable?"
Bob Bain describes a long debate that politicians and educators have “waged war” over, about what should be taught in the history classroom. What are the two sides and what do they argue?
Answer:
On one hand, some see history as a collection of facts to be taught, while others defend critical thinking as a better approach to history.
Explanation:
While one side prioritizes facts, dates, and names, the other side would say that memorizing is futile and critical thinking is the only way to learn. Both sides are convinced that their approach is the best, and the other a really bad idea. Bob Bain proposes a combination of both approaches to provide better training when teaching history.
