Can the Study of History Be Anything but Boring?
Engle, Shirley H.
Louisiana Social Studies Journal, v13 n1 p15-17 Fall 1986
Argues that to be relevant and interesting, history properly studied requires two judgments: (1) Facts being reported must be true facts; and (2) Determination of whether the behavior of citizens in an historical episode is good or bad. Concludes that teachers must become themselves real students and encourage inquiry from students. (TRS)
