Some people say History is one of the most important school subjects. Ither people think that, in today's world, subjects like Science and Technology are more important than History. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Education is a vital aspect of

society

. The

subjects

that we teach to our youth in the schools, determine the courses of action we take in the future as a collective. There has always been a recurring debate that has divided the public into two groups; one group states that in today’s world,

subjects

like

Science

and

Technology

are more important than

subjects

like

history

or

humanities

in general,

For instance

belief that teaching

In other words

Hence

for that matter) in order to restore the absent insight in the minds of students. Personally, I believe that it goes beyond just black and white, and

should avoid taking sides in

the students’ minds, and

. In conclusion, the rivalry between

and

is everything but productive.

Instead

should focus on resolving the concurrent issues in the world by having an interdisciplinary approach to life.
