When presented with long sections of reading in history courses, students often assume that they are supposed to memorize all the details. They have difficulty distinguishing between essential elements that they should to remember and details that provide examples of what is being described but that can be forgotten once the basic idea is grasped.

Add description. Please, avoid vague descriptions.
