This episode talks about how to evaluate what literature should be used in ELA classes. Although other classes my require novel reading, it is mostly ELA courses where we get issues from. There are 4 levels of books. Level one is where every student has to read the book and has it attached to their grade. Level two is where there is a set of books to choose from and they pick one to do the graded assignment. Level three is a choice book not graded in anyway and is similar to a library book. Level four are books that are controversial and only designed to change opinions (Op-Ed) and should be seldom used in school. The key concept on level 1-3 is reading level which if it varies use the highest level. Does the public library have the book? Have a process in place to appeal a book that is questioned. In rare cases have an alternate book for a student to use if there is a compelling reason to do so. In conclusion, in our current Left/Right American culture this problem is only going to grow, be prepared.
