High School Journal 93.3 (2010): 111-25. EBSCOhost. Web. 16 Nov. 2010.\n\n\nThis is an article that researched the curriculum at 3 different high schools. Its goal was to discover how teachers were incorporating the presidential election coverage into their classes, or if they did so at all. Some teachers failed to include any Current events into the classroom because it would not be tested on at the end of the year graduation tests. They focused on issues and subjects the students needed in order to pass and graduate.
