Post a discussion page of a minimum 250 words discussing how corporations control the curriculum (what is taught in the classroom) to their own advantage rather than to the advantage of the students in the classroom. Be sure to go into exactly how this advantages the rich or corporations (be specific with details). Remember that in his article Kozol discusses that the curriculum techniques used in the “Success for All” classrooms are similar to the technique Taylorism used to control workers in factories. How is that relevant to corporate control? In this post as opposed to the last one, draw into your discussion these two sources, the article and the video, with the points you make and quotations. Also I want to see a MAJOR emphasis in your post on what goes on INSIDE THE FOUR WALLS OF THE CLASSROOM. How about that Nazi like salute?
Please note: your focus in this post should be on the curriculum exclusively, how that is controlled by the wealthy, and specifically to what end.
Remember corporate control of the curriculum is one of our potential topics for our paragraphs, so you could use what you write here for an essay paragraph if you give it a topic sentence and use two different sources of support (quotations). Others who have written about control are Barber (Channel One) and Kozol. You can use your own post in your essay, but of course cannot use someone else’s. That would be plagiarism
