1) While the idea of an entire country reading the same texts has some appeal, there are some serious drawbacks due to the inability to deviate from the curriculum.
2) On the other hand, total freedom of teachers to choose their own texts to teach can lead to bias and a disconnect from grade level AKS.
3) However, if a more flexible national guideline is implemented with required time periods, authors, or culturally diverse subject matter, teachers would be able to tailor their teaching to their students, resulting in both successful and culturally diversified students.

Thesis: Traditional Anthologies in the past have been restrictive and have limited teachers on what they were able to teach. In order to broaden aspects of teaching and exposure to more culturally diverse readings, a set of guidelines should be enforced.

Topic 1: While an idea of strict reading list could be important for students, t is critical for students to be exsposed to readingd from across the world and from different genders and age groups.

Topic 2: Giving teachers a set guidelines of readings allows for more freedom in the classroom and also helps teachers expand the classroom by use other sources besides books for students to attain knowledge and expand their mindset.

Topic 3:

# data[].attributes.body
Thesis: In order to better adapt to different teaching styles, diverse cultures, and changing technology, a specific list of readings should not be mandated for all high school English students; however, a general guideline should be employed to give teachers the freedom to teach what they wish as long as it follows the set curriculum.

Topic sentence 1:
Teachers in this country all use different tactics in order to best reach their students, so a reading list that they have a choice in would better benefit those they teach as it would reflect their teaching style accurately. (C and F)

Topic Sentence 2:
The United States has always been referred to as a "melting pot" of cultures which is not accurately represented in the books usually mandated for high school students to read. In order to better showcase the wide range of cultures present in our society, students and students should have a say in their reading material. (B, D, and E)

Topic Sentence 3:
Technology is always evolving and becoming more advanced, and the world of digital text is no exception. Digital text has changed how students act and read which affects what material students are reading today, so a mandated list would be outdated and ineffective in a new age learning environment. (D and F)

Thesis: The traditional canon of literature is dulling the creative aspects of high school classrooms and the younger generation's brains. By encouraging teachers to not teach within a confined criteria and curriculum, the school system is allowing for more creativity to take place in schools. This creativity is able to stem from the newfound understandings of multiculturalistic views.

Topic One: The current guidelines of what a teacher is to cover in a general literature class consists of texts from all over the world. In passing, it seems very inclusive, but when you take a further look it only takes in to account one view of history; that of a white man. (Doc A and B)

Topic Two: The best way to allow creativity to take ahold of the classroom is to allow the instructor of said classroom to choose their own texts that they are passionate about to teach in class. (Doc C and E)

Topic Three: Many people may argue that since there are stories from all around the world within one anthology, there must be multiculturalism arleady in the curriculum. (Docs D and B)

# data[].attributes.body
Thesis: There should not be specific texts that all students in high school english must read, because it limits the opportunity for variety and freedom to select what books students must read across schools. Required texts are generally not multicultural readings, which prevents students from being exposed to enriching texts that provide diverse characters and viewpoints from around the world.

Topic sentence 1: The opportunity for more freedom to choose what books students should read will allow for a much more diverse selection of books available to students. Teachers should be able to choose from books that go with a guideline that ensures that students are reading material that will be valuable and enriching.(Source C)

Topic sentence 2: Some may argue that a set list is needed to prevent teachers from selecting books that will not be beneficial for students to read. (Use source B to show common books read in public/private schools)

Topic sentence 3:Although anthologies have been prevalent in schools for generations, it would be a positive step forward to move away from a specific list that students must read, and more towards a guideline that allows not only for many more options in which books students can read, but also a wider variety of cultures, and themes available to enhance students' learning experience. (Source E)

# data[].attributes.body
thesis: Students and teachers shouldn't be limited to literature that is required by a certain curriculum but rather works that enrich students knowledge and expose them to the many cultures outside of their own; the one they have only been exposed to.
T1:
It is important for students to be exposed to writings of authors from across the world of different ethnic groups, sex, and age due to the benefits that ajoin it(A & E)
T2:
Although allowing teachers to assign whichever books they would like could be non beneficial, being given a guideline would make it easier for them to connect to what is being taught and hopefully enhance it, making it easier for students to understand (C & E)
T2:
With the use of technology, teachers and students could pull outside sources to further ensure the understanding of lessons (D & F)

Despite the fact that diversity is limited in most high school English classes across the nation, forcing teachers to only read certain books, chosen by a disconnected oligarchic council, will only hinder the growth in development and creativity of students and teachers in the classroom.

Topic Sentience 1: Textbooks, already encorporated in schools, give students a sense of diversity by learning the stories from different cultures and teachers a sensor of creativity to teach it in their own way. (C and D)

Topic Sentince 2: Digital technology enables everyone in the school systems to find and read canons from history, and also texts that are more recent and up to date. (B and F)

Topic Sentence 3: While it is evident that canons are mostly composed of written works lacking a variety of viewpoints and texts with more culturally advanced pieces increase reader satisfaction, providing nationwide guidelines for high school English classes to use would be a better approach to increasing multicultural stories in school systems . (A and E)

To adapt to teaching styles and enrich learning through multicultural readings and technology, teachers should not have to follow a national curriculum and they should decide what books to teach. However, there must be guidelines ensuring the books match what students should be learning.

Digital text rather than printed books allows students and teachers to choose books from a wider variety. (Doc F and C)

With electronic readings, school systems have more access to multicultural literature. (Doc F and E)

With teachers given the right to choose, it must be insured that students are still reading about relevant and cultural subjects. (Doc C and E).

To prevent students from being limited to a set of literary references, a national standard should not be set for monitoring the texts studied in high school English classes.

Topic sentence 1: By allowing teachers a broader scope for selecting texts to study will promote a more diverse set of texts to be studied and is more likely to hit the classics. (Source B)

Topic sentence 2: When teachers are allowed the freedom to select texts from other cultures, it allows them to demonstrate to their students the magnitude of the value of writings from other cultures whereas a narrowed perspective of a nationalized text would limit students' exposure. (Source D)

Topic sentence 3: Multicultural texts present students with a greater sense if historical relevance and impact them differently by broadening their perspectives with views from cultures around the world. (Source E

Since traditional anthologies have been have been culturally restrictive in the past, and our lack of a national curriculum has been ineffective in diversifying student reading, we, as a country, should not be specific required texts for highschool  students, but rather a national guideline that could provide for diversity and national homogeny as well as provide teachers with more freedom to teach texts that are relevant to their students.

# data[].attributes.body
Thesis: With the changing literary climate, national anthologies should be cycled out of the educational system, as fewer people find value in written text and multicultural presence is becoming dominant in valued works.

Topic 1: Tastes often change as cultural norms are shifted over time, and literature is no exception, as anthologies continue to be insufficient in highlighting different cultures and answering student's questions.
C E
Topic 2: Modern technology has fostered a generation where people have freedom to choose for themselves, but national anthologies restrict this choice, making reading less enjoyable and sufficient for student growth. F

Thesis-
Schools in the United States are free to choose which books they will require their students to read, however, these schools should be required to make the students at every school read the same books in order to offer equal education opportunity and ensure the learning of multi cultural literature.

Although teachers have a curriculum to follow, it is not being properly utilized. In order for students to maximize their benefit from cultural enrichment there should be a national guideline rather than specific books for teaching.

1) It is true that very few women have been popular writers throughout history, however the women authors who have existed provide an important window into how life was lived at the time. Doc A

2) While there are stories in the current curriculum about race and oppression that the different races are faced with, few are actually written by people of color. Doc E

Since public education became mandatory, there has been controversy over what should and should not be taught to students. In reality, it is beneficial for there to be required texts that each high school English student must read because of the educational benefits that they pr vide.

Text should be valued and explored in whatever ways desired with certain guidelines. By encouraging teachers to teach with limited guidelines it can allow room for more creative thinking and inovation all while incorporating diversity.

Topic: Through the national school system being limited to reading generalized texts, and not being able to read various texts from multicultural literature could potentially prevent the students from expanding their minds (E).
Topic 2: Unfortunately many of the highly renouned texts are very biased when linked to diversity. Due to the fact of there being an abundance of white males who have become mainstream writers instead of an african american or a women also discourages students from connecting with the text.

Though the standardization of public education ensures equality within school systems, students should be able to have more independence within their literary education and have the opportunity to learn more multicultural aspects in the classroom.

Topic 1: With aspects in classrooms ever so changing, common core text is becoming less apparent as teachers and students desire to move away from basic literary novels and discover more multicultural features.  ( Source D, E)

Topic 2: The wide use of technology has also strongly contributed to the classroom and has allowed students to diversify their learning and independently discover new information. (Source F,D)

Thesis:Students in high school are often tought works based on their teachers or schools perspective so in order to expose students to multiple perspectives there should be a diverse list of books that teachers are required to pick from. This affords teachers the opportunity to choose a book they find beneficial as well as the method they display it in therefore promoting creativity, variety and structure.
Topic 1:By requiring schools to have a list of multicultural titles to choose from, it allows teachers a say in what they teach while also expressing diversity to the students(Doc A,E)
Topic 2:Moreover, teachers should be given a choice to use works of literature which are not included in required anthologies so that they are able to use any part of the literature as well as utilizing modern forms of technology(Doc C,F)

Since public education became mandatory, there has been controversy over what aspects of literature should be exposed to students. In reality, it is beneficial for there to be culturally-enriched texts that high school students should read for educational benefit. With that being stated, this collection of texts should include diverse and multi-cultural authors.
Topic: In historical perspectives, white men have been widely represented in educational literature while women and other ethnicities are not being fully represented in an educational environment.
Topic: Multicultural differences have previously provided challenges in the classroom; however, widening a student's perspective in cultures promotes an acceptance in diversity and furthers knowledge.

High school teachers should have more control over what the students read in school. The books should be based on this opens the view for more distinct readings, the criteria should be based on what books work best.
Topic 1: Since diversity is very limited in high school readings the teachers should have more influence on what gets read.
Topic 2: National cirriculum should be required since this sets a standard and makes sure the students learn what they need to.
