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!

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! --jet57 ( u∴ t) 11:00, 24 April 2007 (UTC) 11:29, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
More thought should have gone into this before it was edited.... There are so many questions now that I would like this person to answer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bundyrumforever ( talk • contribs) 22:37, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
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)
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)

I'll give one brief example in answer to each question, based on pre-school level:
For example, the illustration in children's books might give the message that every child is caucasian, that only boys dress up as firemen, or that every family has a daddy and mummy.
Firstly, every child should be able to relate with what's being taught: so if the picture-books show only boys, not girls, or only white-skinned children having cool adventures and a happening social life, then that's not very inspiring for everyone. Secondly, you don't want the adult-supplied environment (nor the adults themselves) to reinforce poor stereotypes: for example if a boy says to a girl in the playground, "give me that truck, girls can't play with trucks" then it's unfortunate if that message is inadvertently coming from the adults too. Note that "anti-bias" is being taught first to the teachers.

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)
It might be better to limit the scope of this topic: to say that it's about the Anti-bias curriculum in Canada or even in Ontario. That might resolve some of the problems people have with it:
In response to Michael Johnson's comment, this isn't necessarily just "progressive politics" or personal opinion: more, this is something which is part of the curriculum which is taught to Early Childhood Educators here in Ontario as part of their professional certification.

Most philosophers and scientist have chosen one path, but most maintained some perspectives of the other system of beliefs.

Gödels explanations like the infinite and absolute analysis - Kurt Gödel was a biased thinker by emotional choice, not because of his rational conclusions

Hi, I'm planning on adding sources, and editing this Wikipedia page with new information that reflects additional perspectives on the value of anti-bias curriculum. I hope to expand on the origin and examples of anti-bias curriculum. I’d also like to include sections on different types of anti-bias curriculum, such as critical race theory and social justice education. SarahD12345678910 ( talk) 01:26, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
