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

and

because videos usually are made with interesting stories.
In addition

As a consequence

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

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

is able to stream the entire
