I would like to think that teachers should be the mediators of fact and not given lessons in possiblity (( unless playing devil's advocate within the lines of " if such and such happened instead )) History teachers even more so. That being said, why not bring the subject to bare playing pro and con to both side a subject and allow smartly the student to decide for themselves.


Case and point ... my English history teacher in college had the class writing a report on the Discovery of the New world and the things most changed by it. I myself thought religion and the most changed paradigm shift however others thought otherwise... while I have that view possiblie away from others... the point of the teacher so simply for me to interpret the data and walk away with a new found understanding.
