The RSS reader that I set up through Google now has a couple subscriptions. I’ve subscribed to a blog search query about censorship in public schools. Two other news queries I subscribed to are “Myspace in schools” and “censorship in schools”. I chose these searches because I’m interested in the way schools today strive for students to become “self-motivated” learners and to be on the cutting edge of technology, yet when students put these two ideals together say in a Myspace or Facebook page we chastise and censure them. I am looking forward to learning about censorship in schools so that when I become a teacher I will be better apt to let my students express their ideas without the fear of punishment and censorship. I hope as the going-to-be teachers of today become the teachers of tomorrow we can eliminate this silly censorship.

I have a subscription to both the NY Times and Washington Post Education sections as well as BBC’s headlines. On a personal note I got subscriptions to Aljazeera and BBC both relating to the war. I have picked up a subscription to Real Clear Politics as well because I’ve found it to be helpful and interesting.
