For my unit 2 assignment, I wrote about why hasn’t the curriculum changed to reflect contributions to the world made by other people besides white Europeans and how more black studies programs should be placed in earlier grades, exceptionally high schools. I chose this topic because I find this to be an overlooked issue in today’s society. In my writing, I was mainly speaking to faculty in schools and high representatives that play a role in the education system. I chose these people as my audience because this is an issue that only teachers, principles, and officials can change. If a change is to happen, it has to start within the classroom, the hallways, and the administration office. Students need to feel as though their voices matter. The best way I believe in presenting my information to this audience is by doing a TED talk. I make a video explaining the facts of this issue and how it’s hindering students’ education. While using my information from unit two, I can also add images and clips that I recently discovered while browsing the week.
