Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community
The American Civil Liberties Union has written a letter demanding that schools cease filtering online materials posted by gay and lesbian student groups. "This practise violates both the First Amendment and the Equal Access Act, 20 USC para 4071 et.seq., and must immediately cease... The Rochester Community Schools do not have a legitimate pedagogical basis for censoring students' access to these websites." See also coverage from the Dallas Morning News. Also Ars Technica.
