Case Study: Socio-Cultural Aspects Of Education
[ send me this essay ]
11 pages in length. With the student teaching populations of primarily Hmong and Hispanic individuals, there are several issues to be addressed, not the least of which include stereotypical attitudes, gender discrimination and social class oppression. The young men are typically between seventeen and nineteen years of age and have had significant dealings with the law; as such, their attitudes toward education in particular and social structure in general do not reflect well within the classroom. The student's concern appears to be twofold: 1) abandoning her own ingrained stereotypical issues so that her attention is equally divided among the classroom and 2) addressing the school's distasteful practice of shuffling otherwise unqualified individuals through the system as a means by which to obtain grant funds. The bigger picture, however, is assessing the importance and quality of education within America's school system, inasmuch as special education programs, such as the one in which the student is involved, tend to turn the instructor into more of a glorified baby sitter than one who imparts knowledge. The writer discusses social and economic oppression as they relate to furthered education. Bibliography lists 15 sources.

Censorship
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page research paper that addresses the topic of censorship, with particular focus on public school libraries. Censorship, by definition, restricts the free flow of information and ideas. Censorship in the US is usually rationalized as a means of protecting minors from sexually explicit material. However, there can be considerable difference of opinion even on this topic as what some parents see as "pornography," others perceive to be age-appropriate information on sexual health. An examination of censorship in the US indicates that parents should monitor reading material in the home, rather than insisting that certain books should be banned in school and public libraries. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Censorship-Filters in Libraries
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page research paper that examines the use of censorship-filters on public-access computers in libraries. For libraries throughout the country that wish to continue to receive federal funding, it is no longer a question of whether or not to employ censorship-filters on at least some their public access computers, it is simply a question of implementation. This is due to the Supreme Court decision to uphold the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) (What's next, 2004). Censorship-filters are here to stay on children's computers in libraries (What's next, 2004). On that, there is no debate as the public, as well as Congress, are demanding censorship in regards to children's use of the Internet. However, it is still questionable as to whether or not all library computers should have filters installed. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
