It is more important for school children to learn about their local history than world history. Do you agree or disagree?

In my opinion, I think

history

gives similar learning to us because regardless of people's country, they usually pursue similar value like love, peace, wealth and health. Of course, there are a lot of humans who are totally different from each other, which might be looked too different from local people. I guess

this

is why some people insist that students should focus on their local past than world

history

. They lived a similar patterned life, which might teach more desirable ways to pupils.

However

, I think

local past

Suggestion

the local past

is not very different from world

history

as I said. Though foreign people ate different food, wore different clothes and had a different political system, all of them contain other people's priority and value, which can inspire students in a new way. I think the teacher's role is very important.

Firstly

, it would be great to teach local past to students

first

and intrigue their interest in

history

. Since there are more similarities in local past, children can easily be fascinated with it. And

then

teachers can introduce world past for their students. They can find that though there are some difference between two of them, human's desire and pursuit are general things. In conclusion, I think both of them are so important that either of them cannot be omitted in

history

education. If students are taught them well,

then

they can have a balanced view.
