West Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Bringing politics to a science class near you! A Silicon Valley lawmaker is gaining momentum with a bill that would require "climate change" to be among the science topics that all California public school students are taught. The measure, by state Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto, also would mandate that future science textbooks approved for California public schools include climate change. http://www.mercurynews.com/education/ci_8269190 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkWaters Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Yet another example of why government run schools are a terrible idea. Their curriculum is determined by partisan politics, not by an educational entrepreneur who wants to deliver a quality education for an affordable price.

Benpercent Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Not only that, but the current state of education will probably have it so the kids won't even remember what they've "learned". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
