View the following video clip where students read the essay ″The Purpose of Education″ (1947) by Martin Luther King, Jr.: (helpful if you take notes) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v＝FFrb-0PQrAE&t＝49s (Links to an external site.) In this essay, King asserts that education has both a utilitarian (useful) and a moral function (what is right): To save man from the morass of propaganda, in my opinion, is one of the chief aims of education. Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from the fiction….Intelligence plus character–that is the goal of true education. TOPIC: Develop an argument as to whether Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. ideas about the purpose of education is still relevant today. Ideas to consider: What does he mean by “morass of propaganda.” Why is it education’s duty to arm students against it? Have there been people in authority who have given the nation false information? How could a ″true education″ help in responding to these false information? Support your ideas with one of your readings from Zinsser “the right to fail” Structure/length: 1. introduction/claim 2. background information (general ideas about education) 3. refute 4. reasons–2-3 paragraphs with specific evidence from video/reading 5. conclusion
