As you sit drinking your coffee and look out the window at Lake Wildwood, or as you drive about Nevada County and observe the water flowing in Squirrel Creek, Deer Creek, or the Yuba, have you ever wondered about the origins of the water?

Source: Las Vegas Review-Journal (7-21-08) Late-night talk show host Jay Leno can make a history teacher flinch with his "Jaywalking" segment. Random individuals stopped on the street appear stumped when asked who the Americans fought in the Revolutionary War. They can be wildly off the mark in blaming the North Vietnamese for bombing Pearl Harbor. (It was the Japanese). Carson City School Board member Joe Enge thinks it's because history education has been dumbed down. Enge, a former history teacher, said that fact-driven, chronologically taught history is being replaced with something less in public schools. History instruction is moving toward a thematic approach that seems "high-sounding," but is really shallow in content, Enge said. The Carson City School Board member fears that if Nevada's Council to Establish Academic Standards, which meets today, approves new history guidelines for K-12 education that are thematic in approach, the state will be making a mistake. ...
