By a wide margin, the most common reason why students aren’t interested in history is because they find the topic boring. Let’s face it; not all of our history classes are presented in the most interesting way. Typically, students learn about historical events either via long lectures in which the teacher talks on and on about the various events that occurred in the past, or by the reading of a thick book with several chapters. As part of their study about the past, students may also see a documentary that was filmed many years ago. Therefore, it was safe to assume that few pupils were interested in learning about such a dull and unimaginative topic.
