• W2891839618 abstract "History teaching in schools has sometimes been condemned as dull and irrelevant to life. This is not surprising when one recalls the weary round of talk (unrelieved by chalk) and of dictated notes to be learned and then tested. Such methods almost guarantee boredom, particularly as much of the subject matter is incomprehensible to the young in the form in which it is presented. In no other subject, it seems, is there so much teaching and so little learning. To those who are convinced that history has an essential place in the curriculum of a school, it seems vital that its inclusion be justified by successful teaching. This does not mean that standards should be lowered, or that entertainment should replace learning. Indeed, it is vital that history should not be regarded as a soft option. It is the history teacher's task to experiment, to vary and adjust his methods to assure that the area to be covered is mapped, walked over, climbed and conquered. It's all too easy to make a period of history a no-man's land that no man cares about.|A child enters the world without knowledge of it. In the long run, what he can know and believe about the world depends on the attitude he learns to adopt toward it and toward himself. His early years are spent in exploring what the world contains, how he feels about what he discovers and how to cope with the small private sector which he occupies. Although rarely labeled as such, this exploration is education – a set of personal experiences in which the child's senses and emotions are so completely fused with his intellect that he does not separate the knowledge that he possesses from the way he feels about it. Through the normal course of growing up in his culture, each child is taught what he is intended to know. His sense of identity and attitudes depend on the cultural background in which they are developed. In order to learn, it is necessary to be able to relate new knowledge to something already known, and to look at the world from one's own point of view. This process necessarily narrows what the world looks like to a single perspective, thus distorting its reality. Only history can provide a truly comprehensive picture of the world as it is.|Since it is the attitude taken toward the world which is decisive in what one learns to think and know about it, it is with the creation of attitudes that the teacher of history is unavoidably concerned. This does not mean agreement or disagreement with specific political, social or world views, but attitudes which support rational inquiry versus dogma and prejudice, independent thinking versus uncritical acceptance of social norms, tolerance towards opposing views versus ethnocentricism, the achievement of a large view of world society versus a parochial view of one's own.|In considering the past education of history teachers, it is important to remember that during the early years in school a student is totally immersed in Everybody's American Culture, usually that of the white, middle class, and that school teachers are more likely to…" @default.
