hahahOBVIOUSLY--they need to at least stop the ridiculous history studies that go into detail/cut back on them because we are lacking behind in reading, math and scienceOn the world stage, U.S. students fall behindAgain, where did you get your education degree?
American Kids Lag in Math, Science
that's where
So WTF does that have to do with teaching middle school social studies?
...you mentioned ''dumbing down'' ..no--it would enhance learning the more critical subjects
if you can't read---it's harder to learn the other subjects
my daughter was the best reader. in grade school ..we went to the library every week
she's was the best in her class in grade school and all As in high school--and this with taking higher classes
plus, big readers also do well in English classes---and also do well in writing essays/stories/etc
Unfortunately, that is not your decision.
Not every person is going to grow up to be a conservative, especially if they do not learn the lessons of history. I guess you encourage the mental defect known as liberalism by not teaching history?
I agree that reading is important and that is why many of our kids are lagging behind the so-called average students in other countries.
You really should look into those international testing comparisons to see the truth.
If I test students bound for Harvard in the US, and you test students bound for auto body repair vocational training in another country who is going to do better?
Those other countries do not test:
a) minorities because they simply don't have them.
b) special education students with learning disabilities
c) children in their poorest areas like we do
It is an apples and oranges comparison on so many levels it is ridiculous.
history should be an elective in high school
what job positions require it?
politicians/history teachers/........? what else?
there are a LOT of people out there that have no idea about history--including on this forum
tell me what you need it for
and the story of Rockwell Tory doesn't count ...I've got the DVD

the amount of what they learn per historical incident--is probably counter-productiveOBVIOUSLY--they need to at least stop the ridiculous history studies that go into detail/cut back on them because we are lacking behind in reading, math and scienceOn the world stage, U.S. students fall behindpost # 18 points are not for grade shcoolers
more math, science, reading, English at that grade
the US is behind a lot of countries in those areas
history details are not that important--especially at that age
not dumbing down--learning more efficiently--what's more important
U.S. students’ academic achievement still lags that of their peers in many other countries

1. they can't go into the details that actually are the critical, factual realities
2. because of #1, you have some high school and college teachers that put their own spin on reality--not the truth
3. once out of high school, a lot of these kids couldn't care less about history--as soon as they get the diploma--it's forgotten--forever

Patterns are established. No, we can never compare the current situation exactly to something in the past, but when we see major similarities and the outcome was horrible the first time, we can put on the brakes.
Everyone needs basic history, especially the history of their country.

most people have NO idea of history.........they don't and can't teach enough of history for the students to really know what happened--it's counter productive

once they get that diploma--history is the farthest from most students' minds
was the Vietnam War good or bad?
good---the US tried to save a country, ..did save many that escaped the evil NV rulers

Liberalism is about liberty and small govt. You are an idiot.Pretty much the basis of liberalism is to change humanity from one that limits its self to worship of a being that does all for humanity to one that instead does all for its self.

most people have NO idea of history.........they don't and can't teach enough of history for the students to really know what happened--it's counter productive
how is teaching about the Renaissance going to help?
how is learning about hitler going to help?
once they get that diploma--history is the farthest from most students' minds
was the Vietnam War good or bad?
good---the US tried to save a country, ..did save many that escaped the evil NV rulers
bad-millions were killed for nothing
what's the student supposed to think??
Christianity/Crusades
good--the Christians want to better and help peoples
bad--the Christians raped/pillaged a CATHOLIC town during the Crusades for ---$$$$$$$ !!
Siege of Zara - WikipediaThe Siege of Zara or Siege of Zadar (Croatian: Opsada Zadra, Hungarian: Zára ostroma; 10–24 November 1202) was the first major action of the Fourth Crusadeand the first attack against a Catholic city by Catholic crusaders.
first you have to learn the true-real history, before you can remember it
I think I have discovered the problem. You simply do not understand history, so you hate the fact that others get it and you didn't.
Fair enough!
