Japanese History

I started to read the textbook about Japanese History because I didn't know much about it  in detail.

I thought it is a shame not to be able to explain about it ,even though I'm Japanese. 

When I was high school days, I could keep the important words in my mind just by listening to the teacher's explanation.

But as the time passes, my capacity of memorizing the word in the long term is getting worse than that of my high school days.

So, I change my mind now.

In Japanese educational system, history is regarded as an unit which capacity of memorizing is needed.

So, there is a tendency that memorizing important keywords is a priority thing whenever we want to learn history.

But, is that truth?

I reconsidered that there is an another way of enjoying history other than memorizing them. To learn history is not just to memorize the important keywords in order to answer to the problem in the examination.

So, I apply the new way of enjoying the history now.

I want to keep this activity from now on.
