At the risk of being labeled a major troll, I just had to pass this along. After all, isn’t everyone allowed at least one troll per year?
Surfing the news, I came across this item:
- TURNING DOWN THE HEAT: Michael Moore purposely did not submit "Fahrenheit 9/11," his indictment of the Bush administration's handling of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, in the documentary category in hopes of being considered for best picture. But his film was shut out completely.
And I thought to myself, yeah, go for it, dufus. The classic snowball chance in Hell. Then, out of curiosity, I was wondering what was little Mikeys’ response to this “snub”, so I moseyed over to his website, and found nothing. But then, I came across the unbelievable following:
Welcome to the Fahreneheit 9/11 TEACHER'S GUIDE.
The lessons and activities in this GUIDE are designed to help students develop a critical analytical ability, historical perspective, and applied math skills that will open their minds beyond the current issues covered in Fahrenheit 9/11.
The individual units may easily be adapted to many levels and taught across the curriculum - Social Science, [History, Civics, Psychology, Sociology, Political Science, Economics] Language Arts, Humanities, Drama/Theatre, Film, ESL, Media/Journalism, Speech/Communications, Mathematics...
Develop a critical analytical ability?
Historical perspective?
Applied math skills???
This is just so wrong on so many levels, it is simply unbelievable. Someone please tell me it is just a joke.
P.s. Note that the only legitimate class curriculum for this BS was omitted –Ethics, as in the example of lack of film making ethics.
Behold the turtle! He makes progess only when he sticks his neck out. (James Bryant Conant)
