Episode 6: Why Teach History? (24.09 min)

History is fun. It's also fundamental. You have to know how the world got where it is. Sadly, most of our students have no sense of time, no sense of what came before what. Students can rarely name a date within 50 years, or point to a geographical location within 500 miles. Because nobody ever required even this small degree of precision.

Reviews of Bruce Deitrick Price

Let's Fix Education explains to Americans why their schools are so bad. The people in charge prefer mediocrity because they are socialists of one kind or another. If people work together to promote real education, we'll have it.
