This query is for classroom teachers or other educators not presently working as librarians. I am posting to this forum because I know we have members with an interest in librarianship who are not serving directly in that capacity. I am interested in challenges to curricular materials other than library books or other library resources. Have you experienced a challenge to a curricular material--text, activity, story, poem, video presentation, internet resource, etc.? If so, I would be grateful for answers to these questions: 1. Please describe the material. 2. What was the nature of the challenge? 3. How was it resolved? 4. Did you feel you were prepared for this event, and what advice would you offer to others facing similar challenges? Part of my design is to make the point that challenges can occur in any area of curriculum delivery and that all educators should be proactive, should know their institution's policies, and should be prepared in case a challenge occurs. Another request about challenges was posted yesterday, and I know these requests come along frequently due to class assignments. Please respond to her request rather than mine if you must choose, or forward me your response to that request if it also applies here. I do not want to infringe on this student's work. My query is really just for situations outside the realm of the library. My questions are prompted by an assignment for a class in curriculum issues, part of doctoral studies in curriculum and instruction at Baylor University, TX. Thanks in advance for any responses, and I will post a hit. Spring is tough on grad students and we do appreciate your help!
