Historiography - the study of the methodology of historians in developing history as an academic discipline, and by extension is any body of historical work on a particular subject.

Winston Churchill said, "history is written by the victors."

Interesting concept when you think about teaching and using a history textbook.

In an attempt to engage students in the content I think educators need to move away from teaching and assessing factual knowledge of history and delv into the topics employing some critical thinking.
