David Barton on Drive Thru History

In this clip David Barton addresses the difference between biographical history curriculum like Drive-Thru History and what is currently being taught in schools today.  In recent years history has been taught as a series of events, chronologies, places and times and has become quite boring to the reader.  When history is taught biographically interest is peaked as you learn about the person, their character and their accomplishments or faults.  If you have never used the Drive-Thru History curriculum, I highly recommend it.  You and your children will love it!
