Study: About 1 in 4 teachers changed curriculum, instruction due to recent legal restrictions
About 1 in 4 teachers changed curriculum, instruction due to recent legal restrictions
Dive Brief:
About 1 in 4 teachers reported that local and state restrictions on race and gender topics have influenced their choices of curriculum materials or instructional practices, according to a nationally representative RAND Corp. survey of about 8,000 public school teachers between April and May 2022. The survey found restrictions "infringed on teachers' autonomy" by limiting the topics and instructional materials they could discuss.
Teachers of color, high school teachers, teachers in suburban schools, and teachers in states with curriculum restrictions were among those more likely to be aware of or influenced by these limitations.
Teachers felt limitations placed on how they can address race or gender-related topics negatively affected their working conditions, and their responses to the limitations varied from resistance to compliance.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
