In the course of a laboratory work, one translates practice application and gradually widens the scope. History aim at building up the ability to solve carefully and speedily problems which come constantly in variety of ways

Further more, history as a branch of science requires special skills when teaching it and as such following skills are developed in the students studying history, skills includes identifying problems, asking questions, formulating hypothesis, observing, measuring etc. in order to improve the performance of students studying history in secondary school, laboratory exercise in an integral part and should be used only when.

Laboratory practical are readily needed as a means of verifying a scientific law, principle or a theory already known to the students.

It is needed as means of obtaining and learning scientific information.

The laboratory practical can be meshed with text book and other learning activities.

It is needed as means of obtaining scientific skills and knowledge.

Some experiments are performed outside the laboratory just as some laboratory activities cannot be classed experiment while most laboratory activities are conceived in order to provide practice in designing, operating and interpreting data, however experiment are operations or proceeding designing for purpose of testing is supposition, confirming what is known and discovering what  hat not be known (unknown) history also enables the students to developed confidence in what do and themselves as an individuals, as it involves matter.

The inception of natural study was introduced by people who were both specialist in science and history as it branch which is a dynamic and inevitable learning experience for the students.
