It is suggested that learning
history
 through historical video and television is a better way to extend their historical knowledge even though there is a lack of credibility.
While
 I agree that gaining

 from the media can help
learners
 in various ways, I believe that
people
also
 learn historical knowledge with reliable methods. On the one hand, some
people
 think that studying historical

In addition

As a consequence

people
 can access and study

On the other hand
, I believe that using other methods is better to study
history
 rather than watching historical
Tv
 shows and
movies
. First and foremost, studying with
books
 and lectures helps
people
 get clear historical

 and prevent mislearning
history
 because
TV
 shows and
movies
 are made based on historical facts, but they often exaggerate and reduce historical facts. On top of that, studying

 helps to obtain broad historical

Last
 but not least, it is evident that learning with lectures and

 is able to stream the entire

. In conclusion, even though there is a benefit
