A major educational survey has shown that students, especially high school students, are studying much less history – political and social history – than they once did. This is a worrying trend because this will have unfortunate effects on students, on public discussion, and on civilization generally.

Passage and the reading are both about effect of decline in history courses on students. On one side, the writer suggests three theories regarding that studying less history have unfortunate effects on students. On the other hand, the lecturer cost doubts on the claims made by the author, stating that it is valid assumption to think knowing history would solve students' problems.

First off, the professor dismisses that decline in history courses, especially world history, would result in not knowing about the role in their country, by saying that studying history is not the only way for student to acknowledge about their world and this is, simply, bad assumption.

In addition, it is wrong to assume all thing students learn by watching television or reading newspaper are superficial. As professor explains, the entire program prepared for students are well-developed and thoughtful topic on contemporary issues challenging them in today world-like public studies, economic and politic.

Last, it is considered in today world it is more important to study history, so the knowledge you obtain helps you solve the problems you are facing. The lecturer, on the other hand, thinks oppositely about this claim by mentioning that studying history is not the solution. Furthermore, there is not enough information in the past to be used for the present problems. So, it would be wiser to use and learn other information which can be practical rather than studying history.
