Meanwhile, many school children still think Australian history is boring and irrelevant.\u003cbr\u003eIn light of John Howard's recent call for a change in how history is currently taught in schools, \u003ci\u003eTeaching the Nation\u003c\/i\u003e examines the politics and pedagogy of Australian history education at a time when the nation's history seems more hotly debated than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Melbourne University Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47013998657776,"sku":"9780522852332","price":46.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780522852332_p0.jpg?v=1763710922","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780522852332","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
