HISTORY
WHAT IS HISTORY? CAPS DOCUMENT- History is the study of change and development in society over time. The study of history enables us to understand how past human action affects the present and influences our future, and it allows us to evaluate these effects. So, history is about learning how to think about the past, which affects the present, in a disciplined way. History is a process of enquiry. Therefore, it is about asking questions of the past: What happened? When did it happen? Why did it happen then? What were the short-term and long-term results? It involves thinking critically about the stories people tell us about the past, as well as the stories that we tell ourselves.
HOW TO RECORD? AS MUCH AS WE USE OUR CELLPHONES TO COMMUNICATE WITH OTHER, WE CAN SPARE 5 MINUTES OF OUR DAY TO RECORD OUR OWN HISTORY SOME PEOPLE PREFARE CALLING ONE ANOTHER OTHERS WRITE LETTERS (OLD STYLE) SOME TALK IN PERSON OR SKYPING ETC.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO RECORD?
IS IT NECESSARY FOR US TO RECORD WHAT IS HAPPENING? THE REAL QUESTION WHICH WE SHOULD BE ASKING IS, HOW DID WE KNOW ABOUT THE PAST? THEREFORE WITHOUT ANY DOUBT WHETHER WE RECORD WHAT WE CONSIDER TO BE DUMB OR STUPID NOW, WHO KNOWS WHAT MIGHT THAT FOOLISH IDEA CAN TURNOUT TO BE? TRACING BACK TO SOME OF THE PEOPLE WHOM WE CONSIDER AS GREAT SCHOLARS TODAY, DID THEY GET RECOGNITION THEN?
WHAT IS NECESSARY ABOUT KNOWLEDGE? IS IT BECAUSE IT IS TRANSFERABLE? IS IT BECAUSE IT TEACHES US ABOUT WHAT IS CONSIDERED TO BE GOOD OR BAD? THE REAL REASON WHY ONE SHOULD FIND KNOWLEDGE NECESSARY OR NOT NECESSARY SHOULD BE BASED ON THEIR INDIVIDUAL MORALS.
HISTORY AND KNOWLEDGE I N O R D E R T O G E T M O R E O F T H E S E A M A Z I N G S L I D E S C O M M E N T B E L O W C L I C K F O L L O W .
