Academic Freedom Academic Standards Beliefs Boards of Education Censorship Controversial Issues (Course Content) Freedom of Speech Instructional Materials Intellectual Freedom Learning Activities Politics of Education School Community Relationship Secondary Education Social Studies Student Rights Teacher Responsibility Teacher Rights Units of Study A 6-8 day secondary level social studies unit explores censorship in education through a variety of activities. Students participate in a preassessment poll measuring their opinions on academic freedom, answer a questionnaire entitled "What do you think?" concerning local school board and community powers, rank a list of possible teacher activities on a scale from acceptable to unacceptable, and watch the American Library Association film entitled "The Speaker." These activities are accompanied by discussion and analysis questions. A critical reading on student rights concludes the unit. Nine student projects suggested for evaluating the unit include a community censorship poll; a research/opinion paper; an interview with a school official, news editor, or lawyer; and a report on the American Civil Liberties Union.
