Are there other ways people can learn about history, apart from school? How?

I found this question on a sample of a test I'm going to take in a couple of weeks and I have not a clue on how to answer. What do you think about that?

Apart form school, books and the internet, Television or video is also a good way to learn history. There are many historical documentaries that focus on many cultures and countries that you might be interested in. As a history addict, I find documentaries more entertaining and engaging than books sometimes. Programs add something new that wasn't mentioned into text. also, programs can show off various visuals that some books don't include in their entries. The only downside is that not all aspects and personalities of history are covered. Usually, notorious historical figures and infamous times usually got the tube coverage.

There are a lot of resources and venues to learn history. Not just in schools. You can best learn history through reading books and hovering the internet for history. The resources in there can be readily found. Another way is through museums and history themed places. They can best give you a nice and detailed history lecture and some evidence and proof of history. Some learn history through hearsay or from their great grandfathers and grandfathers. History spread by mouth is one of the ways to disseminate history itself.
