thread_title:  Thank Yous 

message: 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)
replies: text: Wow! This is indeed a terrible, terrible article, almost unsalvageable. Anyone with the energy to do so should edit it mercilessly. Arbor 13:05, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Serious problems 

message: 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.

thread_title:  Regarding the problems 

message: 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)
thread_title:  Taking a knife to it... 

message: * In what ways are typical educational plans biased?
* In what ways do these biases contribute to "oppression"?
* In what ways do they interfere with learning?
* There are no examples of ways in which any of the goals of the theory are realized in the classroom, just references to other publications.  Wikipedia needs a short summary with examples, or else readers will not get any detail on the topic of the article.

thread_title:  Unanswered questions 

message: 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)
thread_title:  NPOV 

message: 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:
* You may think it controversial, but I don't think that it is controversial in Ontario. In Ontario, daycares are licensed by the province and Early Childhood Educators are trained and professionally certified: and for these reasons among others, people's opinion of the anti-bias curriculum might be fairly homogenous and not very controversial.
* The original author said, in a comment, that "I don't feel that things such as gun control and hollywood should be included in the list". I (having been exposed to the same training as the author) agree with the author; but if someone else does think that "gun control" and "hollywood" should be included for some reason, I see that as further evidence for my suggestion that details vary from country to country.
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.

thread_title:  Suggestion 

message: Most philosophers and scientist have chosen one path, but most maintained some perspectives of the other system of beliefs.
antibiased:
*Bernhard Riemann
*Aristotel was generally antibiased for an ancient person but made many biased conclusions
biased:
*Socrates [Socrates wrote nothing, we know all his ideas from Plato, especially Platos early works, because then Plato added his ideas]
*Plato [pure idealistic absolutes]
*Kurt Gödel [his  incompleteness theorems were totally antibiased like all
Gödels explanations like the infinite and absolute analysis -
Kurt Gödel was a biased thinker by emotional choice, not because of his rational conclusions
*Karl Marx had biased economic views, not pragmatic but philosophically predetermined
*Adolf Hitler  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.131.105.179 (talk) 19:37, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: This appears to be original research, and only tenuously connected to the subject of the article, which is modern curricula used in formal education settings. If you have sources which clarify your point, and its connection to the subject, please provide them.Dialectric (talk) 00:44, 14 July 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: 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.
