What's the use of group cohomology for class field theory?
I'm a graduate student studying now for the first time class field theory.
It seems that how to teach class field theory is a problem over which many have already written on MathOverflow.
For example ...

sequences in non-abelian group cohomology
In general, if we have a (pro-)finite group $G$ and a sequence of (continuous) non-abelian $G$-modules $$1\rightarrow A\rightarrow B\rightarrow C\rightarrow 0,$$ such that the image of $A$ lies in the ...

The Tate-Nakayama theorem and inflation
Let $K$ be a nonarchimedean local field,
and $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension with Galois group $G={\rm Gal}(L/K)$ of order $n=[L:K]$.
By local class field theory, there is a canonical isomorphism
$$...

Explicit invariant map in local class field theory
Let $K$ be a $p$-adic field with algebraic closure $\overline{K}$. Then if $K^\text{nr}$ is the maximal unramified extension of $K$ in $\overline{K}$, there is an explicit invariant map:
$$
