Exclamation Kindly make precis of following passage

It is especially in the teaching of history that changes are called for. This applies not only in the lower classes but just as much in the higher academic teaching. Hegel, who announced that he had surveyed all human history picked out three individuals as having the most outstanding merits. They were Alexander, Casasr and Napolean. Teachers and thinkers after Hegel in their own country , Germany , were nationalistic and preferred German heroes, while the French boys were being taught that heroism is French and English boys that its is English. This sort of thing will have to stop. I suggested long ago, with the hope that the suggestion would be accepted that in every country the history of that country should be taught from books written by foreigners. No doubt such books would not be free of prejudice but their prejudice will be opposed by an opposite prejudice in the pupils and the out come may be fairly just.

( Kindly elaborate as well the basics )

Any help regarding this topic be appreciated.

Subject of history is taught by being prejudice. Teachers teach their pupils that heroes of their own country are greater than rest of the world. This practice should be stopped. Changes should be introduced in teaching history. Every country should teach history by introducing books written by foreign writers. In this way a biasness free teaching of history can be ensured.

Please read it and mention the mistakes..

The need of time is to change in method of history teaching. Hegel proposed alexander, casasr, and napoleon as outstanding individuals but after him teachers and thinkers introduced biased history, focusing their own country heroes as greater than others. Instead this practice they should teach the pupils unbiased history books written by foreigners to achieve fruitful results.

Kindly check my precis and point out the mistakes.

You did well...
The mistake which I want to highlight is that you used the examples which are there in the original text.But according to my knowledge while making precis we should exclude all the examples which are the part of original text...
Over all it is a good attempt..

Your Precis needs some correction.According to Precis writing rules:
1_Examples used in the original text must be excluded..Here you referred to Alexander,Casar and Napolean,which are the part of original text.
