Why study History?<\/h1>\n

Through an understanding of the concept of continuity, you\u00a0can better appreciate change and its significance, both in\u00a0your own times and in the past.\u00a0It is also intended to enable you to develop skills in explaining historical developments and events, evaluating sources and drawing conclusions.<\/p>\n
