The study analyses the phenomenon of contemporary historical education of children and youth. This education takes place in a changing technological environment, utilizing teleinformatics tools, as well as in a changing worldview, political, and economic environment. Consequently, new opportunities for historical education arise. The aim of the study is to seek answers to a series of questions that arise in the context of upcoming changes in human education. It is impossible to answer all of these questions. Nevertheless, the most important of these questions include: how to teach history? What place does the teaching of history occupy in the education process of young people? Is it possible to objectively understand history? The study used the method of analysing events caused by new technical possibilities. These events include the introduction of political correctness in the media narrative, limiting the teaching of history to the awareness derived from posts. The result of the conducted research is the expression of concern about the fate of history teaching. This is often popularized by unprepared individuals, and the selection of facts for historical analysis is carried out in terms of political or ideological demand.
