The Evolution of the Curriculum of Ancient World History in Chinese High Schools from 1949 to 2000
Abstract
During the development of ancient world history teaching in Chinese high schools from 1949 to 2000, it underwent a tortuous development from the rise of the 1950s to the 1960s and 1970s. From the revival in the early stages of The Reform and Opening-up to the decline in the 1990s, the ancient world history courses in high schools underwent changes in content and ups and downs in status with the promulgation of teaching outlines and the evolution of curriculum settings. The reasons for this were related to the domestic political situation, history education ideology, and foreign education experience.
