I Hate History Class

Ugh. So boring and it's really hard to remember everything. And anyway who cares about all these details. It's just a way for them to make school harder.

Learn from the past. Use it in present. Predict the future and be prepared.

people that forget the past tend not to have a future.
Hmmm. kinda like this entire next generation.

History is important, but I think too much time is spent on ancient history while the last century is often ignored. In every U.S. history class I've had, we always ran out of time right after the Great Depression. It sounds like a conspiracy to me.

Ill agree to that one. Its why some of us think the schools are indoctrinating intead of educating and teaching critical thinking

@spedoman: Exactly. They are teaching kids what they want them to know, not what kids need to know. Those who ignore the past are destined to repeat it.

those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. You are the first person I ever heard say she hates history but guess you can't love all subjects

History needs to be taught in a way that captures pupils imaginations, not an easy task but a passion for the subject helps.

@sarahrebecca2000: At your age you should mostly be writing essays and not memorizing lists of dates. It shouldn't be that bad.

@Laifu1: Well they do

Knowing the details is how we prevent our past mistakes.

Well, human affairs are complicated and detailed . . . but I don't think they make it that way just to make your history lesson a misery 😉
