The content for this page started off as an off-site post as part of a course requirement in Early Childhood Education and Technology at Ryerson University (Toronto, Ontario, Canada). I was not required to upload the page onto Wikipedia, but I felt that it was my duty to inform a broader audience and set the stage for the anti-bias curriculum. It really is about time that individuals (especially those in the field of Education) apply an anti-bias stance!

[edit] Serious problems
This article has serious problems. Would the original authors please read Wikipedia:NPOV carefully, and apply it to, e.g. the uncritical use of the word "oppression" and the weird list of "examples of oppression". Thanks! --Jmstylr 11:29, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
- Wow! This is indeed a terrible, terrible article, almost unsalvageable. Anyone with the energy to do so should edit it mercilessly. Arbor 13:05, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Regarding the problems
The list of the "examples of oppression" has been dramatically changed since I wrote this article. I don't feel that things such as gun control and hollywood should be included in the list. Will try to modify the list. -- Jan i 19:27, 27 Nov 2005 (UTC)
[edit] how come anti-bias doesn't apply to feminist propaganda?
I can't find a single article relating to the male body that is not swamped with anti-male feminist crap... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.152.105.16 (talk • contribs) .
[edit] Taking a knife to it...
OK I've taken a knife to it. I've tried to phrase it in NPOV terms, plus I've deleted the whole "how to" section, which seems to be mostly original research. If the original author wishes to add it back in, in a NPOV manner, with adequate citations, that is fine. Can't see the point in the long lists of articles at the bottom, but they don't do much harm. The original author would be better served by paring them down to articles that are directly relevent, rather than just listing any subject that seems to relate to progressive politics. --Michael Johnson 02:05, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Unanswered questions

Please help improve this article or section by expanding it. Further information might be found on the talk page or at requests for expansion. This article has been tagged since March 2007. |
- In what ways are typical educational plans biased?
- In what ways do these biases contribute to "oppression"?
- In what ways do they interfere with learning?
- There are no examples of ways in which any of the goals of the theory are realized in the classroom, just references to other publications. Wikipedia needs a short summary with examples, or else readers will not get any detail on the topic of the article.

[edit] NPOV
I have had to somewhat ironically tag this article as non-neutral, because it only covers the proponents of the approach, but not its critics. Given how many opponents of so-called policital correctness would love to tackle a topic like this, this seems like a glaring omission. -- Beland 21:58, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
