Re: Lessons on Iraq
I agree, that was nicely done by Dr. O'Malley.
One of the best uses for history as a teaching tool is having students discern the patterns present in seemingly dissimilar scenarios, from which they can then extrapolate and develop analogies, which in turn, can be subjected to critical evaluation as to their soundness or wider applicability. The door is also open for using thought provoking counterfactuals for further reflection and discussion.
