2. Introduction Student Page Title Introduction Task Process Evaluation Conclusion Credits [ Teacher Page ] In the weeks that followed the tragedy of September 11, Clear Channel Communications, a company that owns over 1,000 radio stations across the country, issued a list of 150 songs that could no longer be played on the radio. Although some of the songs were politically charged – Rage Against the Machine had its entire catalogue banned from the airwaves – songs like the Beatles’ “Ticket to Ride” and the Bangles’ “Walk Like an Egyptian” were also banned. Was this move understandable considering the recent tragedy, or was Clear Channel out of line? This WebQuest activity will encourage you to think critically about this question. You will have the opportunity to step in the shoes of a musician, and argue for the sake of your art. Or, you may decide that censorship is warranted at times, and make your argument as a congressman, judge or radio executive. Photo Courtesy jk5854, Flickr Quest Links
3. The Task Student Page Introduction Task Process Evaluation Conclusion Credits [ Teacher Page ] In this WebQuest, you will be examining both sides of the music censorship issue. You will be researching websites that present pro and anti-censorship viewpoints to prepare you to make an informed argument. You’ll also get the chance to examine a specific case, choose a side, and create a flyer in Microsoft Word that argues your points. By the end of this activity, you will be able to identify pro and anti-censorship arguments. Furthermore, you’ll have a better feel for where you stand on the issue, and if there’s certain instances when you might agree with the opposition. Finally, this WebQuest will help you determine if you believe there are instances when censorship is appropriate or inappropriate. Title Photo Courtesty William Kunz, Flickr Quest Links

7. Conclusion Student Page Title Introduction Task Process Evaluation Conclusion Credits [ Teacher Page ] After conducting your research, do you have a better feel for where you stand on the Clear Channel issue described at the beginning of this WebQuest? After examining your case and listening to classroom presentations, do you think that in some instances censorship is necessary? As Americans, we’ve been given great freedoms by the constitution. It’s up to us to ensure that not only are these freedoms defended, but that they are used in a responsible manner. Quest Links

9. Censorship in Music (Teacher Pages) [ Student Page ] Title Introduction Learners Standards Process Resources Credits Teacher Page A WebQuest for 10th Grade English Designed by Bryan Stevens [email_address] Based on a template from The WebQuest Page Evaluation Teacher Script Conclusion
10. Introduction (Teacher) [ Student Page ] Title Introduction Learners Standards Process Resources Credits Teacher Page This lesson was developed as a part of an Education Technology class at Colorado State University in the fall of 2008. ‘ Censorship in Music’ was originally intended as a single lesson in a larger unit on the media. One of the overarching goals of a unit like this is to heighten student awareness about the ubiquity of media messages, and the range of ways in which they are used to manipulate public perception. “Censorship in Music” directs students’ attention to an ongoing controversy in the music world, and asks them to question whether or not music censorship is appropriate in some situations. Students actively research viewpoints on both sides of the spectrum, and are asked to take a side. It is the goal of this lesson to engage students in a critical discussion about censorship and the consequences it has the potential to create. Evaluation Teacher Script Conclusion
11. Learners (Teacher) [ Student Page ] Title Introduction Learners Standards Process Resources Credits Teacher Page This lesson was intended for 10 th grade English students. It relies heavily on popular culture to generate student interest and create an informative discussion. The lesson could easily be extended to the 8 th or 9 th grade levels, but since censorship is a controversial topic, it may be wise to seek parental approval first. Students will need a basic knowledge of Microsoft Word to create the Flyer in this lesson. Most of the content-related questions can either be answered by the teacher, or the Web Quest itself.

Evaluation Teacher Script Conclusion In addition to the flyer, students will be handing in their research notes and delivering a brief presentation on their chosen music censorship issue. The above evaluation will help determine the overall quality of the total package. Students should be able to identify the purpose(s) underlying both sides of their chosen issue, and will need to demonstrate critical thought in choosing a role and arguing their case on the flyer.
