Chapter 6: The ideological bias in English text selection
“The education system is currently the victim of tragically flawed educational approaches and techniques.” Dr Mark Lopez (2021)
From Dr Mark Lopez’s recent book: School Sucks: A Report on the State of the Education System in the Politically Correct Era, Connor Court, 2020:
Chapter 6: The ideological bias in English text selection
Dr Lopez assists his students to avoid these pitfalls but he felt compelled to do more, to sound the alarm regarding the major problems affecting the education system so they can be addressed.
Chapter 6: The ideological bias in English text selection
This chapter on the intellectually stifling ideological bias of favouring political correctness in regards to text selection also covers the educationally even more disturbing trend towards choosing the novels, plays and films etc., for study in schools, by quotas related to the race, ethnicity, class, gender and sexual preference of the authors, or of the featured characters in the text, rather than choosing literature according to its cultural, aesthetic or historical significance. This chapter is presented for free in the interests of promoting important debate and much-needed reform.
