Changes in the Academic Conversation: Trevelyan's 3 Functions of History

One: The Scientific This aspect deals with the collecting and weighing of facts. We are talking about what happened in an individual manner. This is the necessary function of History.

Though the historian chooses the facts, interprets the stories, and comes to a conclusion based on comparative and regressive methods, one can be assured, to a high degree, that these chosen facts and events are valid. Two: The Speculative It is impossible not to separate things when discussing matters of the world and material universe. In doing so we create a cosmos that is intelligible to us.

Since he taught History I figured this is what my main interest was. Recently though, I have completed my Master's in Education and again found myself focused on the failing model of education in its present form. In fact my thesis was titled The F...
