Unfortunatly true, it always saddened me how poorly history was taught in my school. They somehow managed to skip over the greatest of achievments and turn the most inspiring stories of our past into the most boring. I think Huxley was right when he said "That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons that history has to teach." but hopefully we can change that.

The Importance of HISTORY as a Discipline of Study
This is an interesting point and relevant criticism. You need inspiring instructors to teach this topic. Boredom can be overcome if students are taught history has direct impact on the contemporary. Those dates, events and names have bearing on present and future considerations. It needs an invigorating approach.
