Using all the available facts, from history when properly analyzed, can be of great value in teaching tomorrow’s designers. The way in which decisions were made and the success or failure of those decisions in service can be a guide for the future. Methods of analysis can be demonstrated against past events, particularly disasters. Students can see trend curves as the codification of the past, helping them to realize trend curves potential and limits. Finally, there are benefits of pointing out past errors if only to keep from repeating them or reinventing the wheel.
