This week, I decided to focus upon a blog of a teacher who believes that the canon should be focused on what is intellectual and engaging, over whether it is representative of the ethic minority groups, as these students who are under-represented can simply look for people similar to them on the Internet.
Research: 'Learning from my Mistakes'
This allowed me to not only see views on the current curriculum from a different perspective, but also allowed me to evaluate my thoughts in my dissertation and debate against the teacher on why my views are different to the ones that he put forward, allowing me to have another answer to my topic question and look at the topic from a different opinion, rather than having my judgement clouded by finding articles that only agree with my point of view.
You can find the blog I am referring to here: 'Learning from my Mistakes' blog
