FOXNews.com - Politics - NEA 9/11 Lesson Plan Draws Critics But critics of the teachers union say some of the lesson plans place the blame on America, and suggest diversity and tolerance will overcome terrorism. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,60807,00.html
Extractions: OAS_AD('Top'); NEA 9/11 Lesson Plan Draws Critics Tuesday, August 20, 2002 OAS_AD('Middle'); The National Education Association is compiling ideas for ways to teach Sept. 11 and some of them are coming under fire. The program is called "Remember Sept. 11" and the classroom lessons are available to millions of teachers. It's even accessible on the Web. In the program, the NEA suggests kids think about tolerance and diversity and not blame all Arabs for the actions of a few. "We have over 100 linked sites that I'm hoping will have lots and lots and lots of diverse opinions because public schools should be about teaching kids to analyze to think, to be critical thinkers, to not believe everything they read or everything they hear on the radio or TV," said Jerald Newberry of the National Education Association. But critics of the teachers union say some of the lesson plans place the blame on America, and suggest diversity and tolerance will overcome terrorism. "They're putting it out there and it's got their political spin all over it. The sentiment is what is wrong with America, and that's what I object to," said Jan La Rue of Concerned Women of America. Among the messages on the Web site is advice from the Red Cross: "You will not be effective if you purposely or inadvertently take one side over another."

Complete Index Drought, Famine, and Geographic Diversity Overview: Many Americans have heard of Ethiopia only in the context of drought, famine, and war. As they listen to the news stories, it is important for students to recognize that the media portrayals of Ethiopia are not always complete and that Ethiopia is, in fact, a geographically diverse country, including forests, grasslands, and the Blue Nile . This lesson will teach students about Ethiopia's different geographic regions. Connections to the Curriculum: Geography, earth science Connections to the National Geography Standards: Standard 1: "How to use maps and other geographical representations, tools, and technologies to acquire, process, and report information from a spatial perspective"

Extractions: Quiz on Prejudices - an interactive lesson and good starting point for discussion. http://www.eburg.com/beyond.prejudice/Quiz.html I missed a lot of these questions and found them to cover a large section of different kinds of discrimination. I'd recommend this site for information on prejudices- it provides some interesting statistics. Interesting site to collect great dicussion questions. One might take caution with taking the multiple choice and true/false quiz, many of the choices are not chooseable due to lack of detail in the questions being asked. For instance the first question uses the word "punishment" but it's not defined as a simple reprimand, a fine, or jail time. Do Something - Young People Changing the World. Activities and links. http://www.dosomething.org/ This link has the familiar celeb-centered look and hip-hop tone that adolescent net-junkies have come to expectan important aspect overlooked by a lot of sites. A couple of window buttons don't work on the current page. This isn't for "deep thoughts", but it is very accessible for new initiates to social justice issues. Lots of info and possiblities. Could possibly motivate the unmotivated.
