A CLASS DIVIDED
Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
In the 1970s, Jane Elliott, a teacher in an Iowa farming community, taught her third graders about the effects of prejudice by dividing the class on the basis of eye color.
In this I>Frontline documentary, filmed 15 years later, Elliott meets with some of her former students to analyze the impact of her now-famous test. The power of her experiment is shown when it is conducted at a prison facility with 175 employees. (The expanded 172-page edition of the book, A Class Divided: Then and Now, explains the profound effect of the experiment on her students’ lives.) The DVD comes with a copy of the book and an extensive teacher’s guide.
